Arizona Chickens

Mosquitoes are alive and plentiful in my area every summer. I of course always try to avoid breeding spots, by emptying any spot/container, ETC. of any standing water.
The Township sprays some Pesticide,,, but only about twice each year,,,,,, and usually associated with Holiday dates... This way peeps can enjoy their BBQ's without being eaten.

To be able to eat without being eaten is a good thing.

Ouch! One of the Bielefelder hen's layed this today.

Wow! My Bielefelders lay just medium size eggs.

That egg was from one of my hen's from last year that recently finished her molt. If she was trying to lay one bigger then that ceramic egg in that nesting box, she succeeded.

Well, I went ahead and cracked it open, and it turned out to be a double yolker.

Night is when we set the A/C colder, lol, otherwise hubby can't sleep!

That's what I'd just love... . But, I'm happy as is

Does anyone use Diatomaceous Earth with their chickens?

I do. I use it to dust them occasionally, but mostly I squirt it into cracks and crevices in coops and nest boxes.
