  1. Hector, you can go to any farm store, in this area it is Rural King, and buy antibiotics used for poultry.  It is sometimes a powder you mix with feed.  Sometimes it is medicated feed.


  2. ask a person with a chicken

  3. If it's an internal one do this:The treatment of chickens to control intestinal parasites can benefit the grower by decreasing parasite levels in heavily infected birds. This will result in a decrease in the build-up of parasite eggs in the environment. Specific worm infections require specific medications. A determination of which worms are affecting your chickens should be made by your veterinarian prior to treatment. Proper use of medication in combination with sound management and sanitation practices should limit production losses from intestinal worms. Lice Menopon gallinae appear as small, creamy brown insects that proliferate on the body of the bird. They congregate mostly towards the bird's butt end to lay their eggs (chalky white blobs stuck to the base of the feathers). Lice are transmitted by direct contact with infested birds. While it is believed that lice do not actually bite the birds, but rather eat dead skin and feather debris, the irritation they cause makes the birds pick at themselves, causing sores and general depression. Lice are easy to destroy, with a quick dip of the birds in a malathion bath and liberal use of a sulphur-based insecticide dust.

    Red mites Dermanyssus gallinae are more sneaky and much more dangerous. They only come out in the dark hours to feed on the blood of chickens. Often left undetected, they can breed at such a rate that within weeks, there can be literally millions in your fowl shed. Mites will also bite you, your kids and pets, and can hide in bedding, under carpets and in wall joints.


  4. Certain external parasites that are common to chickens e.g. red mite, love to burrow into any cracks and crevices and wooden structures often provide plenty of these. To reduce this risk and ensure that you can thoroughly clean and disinfect your chicken house, a wooden construction should be designed so that it is easily accessed and perches and nesting boxes can be removed for a good scrub.

    Complete and guaranteed prevention of external parasites  is unrealistic because they can be transmitted via wild birds, contact with other infected chickens and rodents that may have access to the chicken house.

    Good hygiene, clean litter and regular inspections of both the chicken house and your chickens are the best way of limiting this problem

  5. Contact a vet.

  6. in my opinion you must eat them
