salbo Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Hi, I noticed just a few Lice on one my Speckledy chicken around three weeks ago, I checked all my other girls and couldn't find any on them, that same day I bought BARRIER LICE TREATMENT and treated all of my girls. But Speckledy still has them, but I have treated her every week since I first noticed them. She is an escapee! and is the only girl who can gets out of the run and is put back in 4-5 times a day! has this caused them? Is there anything someone can recommend that will kill them instantly? or am I doing something wrong with the powder? I changed the bedding, put powder down where they dust bathe and they are cleaned out regularly. ANY SUGGESTIONS??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 Johnsons mite and lice spray - available from pet shops in the budgie section This is great stuff Spray a blast under the wing on the bare skin and another around the vent Its not licenced for poultry and an egg withdrawl of a week is prudent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
