Well, that's the end of my flock. It took me hours to cull them all. Now I begin a massive decontamination effort. I have plenty of bleach and have some Oxine coming. I'll be removing all the bedding from all of the pens - not sure if I'm going to burn that or compost it. Then I'll scrub down and disinfect all equipment and surfaces. I've already started that, actually, as I empty pens.
Does anyone know if I should let the bare ground just sit exposed to the UV light, or should I tractor it a few times and mix things up?
I'm so sorry, Jules. I think I'd lime the heck out of all the grounds with that burning hydrated lime for sure, then till it up, then lime it again, but how long to let it sit, I'm not really sure.
I think I'd burn the bedding in a fire pit, personally.
