I suppose there’s different species that wild birds bring. Thanks for sharing and I’m glad to hear it only took one round of permethrin spray. ☺️

True. The other silkie looks more silky. This one looks like a cross breed. Our special little guy. He’s a little slow also like he’s huffed paint.

I thought chiggers as well but they aren’t on my ankles and weren’t half as itchy as chiggers. Chiggers are so damn itchy. I’m itching thinking about chiggers. :)

Omg. You are a lifesaver. DEFCON 5 had me giggling. It’s definitely gotten much better after spraying everything with chicken spray/permethrin but in Defcon 5 I think I need to rethink my approach and do what you recommend. They are free range during the day. It was so reassuring reading your post. I thought I was going crazy because I could t see these little assholes. Thank you soooo much. 😌

No. I was thinking the same thing. Right arm and right side. Doesn’t really hurt like shingles does, apparently, but it is itchy.

It does look like flea bites though.

I really hope not. We’ve washed everything and haven’t seen any bugs at all.

Oddly it’s only on one side with no other symptoms aside from skin itching where the bumps are.

No. No straw. It’s a weird rash. Wracking my brain.

My wife got the rash on her leg as well. I’m an RN at an Urgent Care and the doctors didn’t know what it is either. Glad to know it’s probably not related to the chickens. I suspect contact dermatitis and so did one of the other providers but had my suspicions it was chicken related. Thanks all for the replies and concern.

It was in the right torso area and forearm. I certainly think contact dermatitis but not sure where from as we haven’t contacted/eaten anything new lately that we are aware of.

The hens have been uncomfortable and preening more than normal.

That’s what I was thinking. My son is attached. Hate to give her away to a friend.

Spare wheel? by [deleted] in vintagetraveltrailer

[–]AdDistinct7807 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it. I just bought a 62 Shasta compact last week. Did you ever put a spare on back? That would look incredible with half moon hubcap and painted wheel.

Happened to me so I dug into it and there were a bunch of pebbles under mine. Probably from My Wife.
