Fascinating study of a variety of lice

Brought home a buck who was out on lease for a year. He is in very good nick, but very itchy, so had a good look through his coat. LICE EVERYWHERE!!! I wanted, curious me, to see if they were biting or sucking lice. I guessed already that they were biting lice, since he doesn't appear to be the least bit anaemic and he's in really good condition after working all breeding season. I've treated him cypercare which I will probably re-dose with in a week since there were so many eggs along his withers and neck...

Came across this: www.pet-informed-veterinary-advice-onlin...m/lice-pictures.html

Fascinating!

I have quite a crop on one child at the moment... wonder if I should take a look at those pictures... Do you think Cypercare would work on her too???? (only joking.. I promise!!!)

Ok, read it, very interesting, thanks - I'm now itching all over:eek:
