I have a question and maybe it's just me being a clean freak but literally how do some of you let your chickens walk around your house?
I am so curious because I was under the impression that like, touching chickens poop, or the chickens step on their poop and it's all over the place, on my hands, on your shirt or pants (if you let them stand on your clothes), etc.
What do you do? Change your clothes every time you're around your chickens?
I have 2 young kids and I worry if I'm going to get one of them sick if I've been around the chickens.
I do wash my hands right away after handling anything chicken related. But I feel kinda bad cause my 3 year old loves to hang out with them as much as I do but I'm so afraid she's gunna get salmonella.
Tbh I'm pretty sure she just got over having salmonella because last week she was throwing up/diarrhea for a whole week.
Just need some home/mama/chicken mama advice. TIA!!
