foreveryoung Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 I haave just been told to use a red mite concentrate produced by "barrier - animal health care, it was about £16 i think, you need 1 to 20 parts water so it should last, I got mine from lillico - dont know if you have one near you or a horse suppiers??? i held them upside down (supporting their backs by laying them on my lap) and sprayed them with it, ive also seperated the 3 skinnier girls and and am giving the bits a peices in hope that they weight will start to improve, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
