Summer Problems For Poultry Keeper
One of the most vexing p. blems which the poultry keeper h” w solve during warm weather is how to deal with the parasites that arc very liable to infest his flock of hens, 1n g great many farm flocks the matter is left to solve itself, that ls, the lice and mites are left to increase and multiply without check.
Poultry flocks. having a certain amount oi free range during the warm months. are able to keep the body lice pretty well 1n check, but the case is different with the mites. Poultry parasites. that is, those which prey upon the outside oi the bodles, m or two classes-those which live upon the bodies of the birds all of the time and those which go there to get their food. ."l kinds of body lice. and there are a good number, spend the whole cf their lives upon the body of the host.
Summer Treatment
It is seldom that a flock of hens can be found that is entirely free from these pests, and it is also true that birds having a chance to dust themselves freely with fine dirt or ashes will keep the pests so few in number that they will not. be particularly troublesome. A" 1 piece of ointment, of which there are several commercial brands. ap- plied below the vent oi the bird at the time the ptillets are removed t0 the laying house in thaFall. will keep them practically free from lice for a period oi six months or more. The lice lay their eggs below the vent of the host. Sonletifnes there will be thousands of them if the bird is boldly infested. m summer treatment give the birds a good chance to dust themselves and if that is not sufficiently effective. dust ‘them with lice Powder. Fine powder is the most effective meth- od of destroying the lice, as they breathe through the pores oi the body and the dust mother them.
Fflll to Chlch
It is something of s task to treat a largo flock of hens. individually. but this is seldom necess y after the Pall treatment. when the birds are housed. Young chicks cannot withstand the attacks of lice. If old stock is kept away from the young- sters. than ought not t: be any trouble. However, it will occasion- 111!
