I
couldn't take very many photos, as the mites were getting all over me. The
mites were worse than ever today, so I went and found a feed store and brought
some Prozap poultry delousing powder. I put a bunch in the nest to kill off
most of the mites and then removed the chicks and took them down to my shower
for "delousing." *Note* -- There were only three babies left this morning.
They can fly now and were pulling their heads out of the nest a lot this morning.
They were pretty angry at me during the "delousing," pecking and
screaming bloody murder. I hope mom isn't mad at all the powder in the nest
and that she will return tomorrow.
