OLDYELLOW

red mites need continual treatment there very prolific and have a 4 day cycle , they can live for 8 months without a host , i'm assuming that the birds that are going off there legs are hens which are over weight , or could be feeding too much protein

does he give them grit ????? could be a calcium efficiently , or over weight hens , other reason could be red mites other than that a trip to the vets
