Title: Lice
Post by: Daisys Mum on April 16, 2014, 09:13:44 am

Both my pygmys have lice, they are due to kid in a few weeks so what would be the best thing to treat them with?

Cooper's Spot-on is also great, if you have no luck with the vet send me a pm, and I decant some for you and OH will bring it with him. It comes in rather large bottles, but I can fill you up two syringes (it is dribbled along their backs starting at the shoulder blades, so syringe without needle works well).
