Look at these guys! <3
Has anyone had a bit of "cradle cap" like with human babies? I noticed the dry skin on day 2 but i just thought since they were just born, and hair growth, but they are officially a week old now...and their heads are rather flakey?

It is very dry and flakey. I really figured it was from all the new hair growth. OMG mites?!!! Idk how.....bleh!
I havent had to deal with mites since we had our flock of chickens, how the heck would i treat for kits? I will check their fur. Same little white boogers like with chickens?

Im wondering if it has to do with this wonkey weather? The winds have been 60+mph and very dry. We are set to have rain! Hopefully this will help! I can turn on the baby humidifier too. Didn't see anything that resembles mites (grossss)
It's just dry skin! Maybe lionheads are more prone to it?- Thread starter

Thank you sooooo much. I'm hoping. My baby has super dry scalp right now too with more hair coming in and super dry outside. So with the kits having their longer hair coming in....its only on their heads. So it makes sense to me!!!!
If it doesn't clear up in the next couple days, I'll be a bit more concerned.
