    Litter and coop compost - how soon to add apply to garden?

    That should be good to go now. Do you turn the compost regularly? If so you will have some great fertilizer.

    How Often Should I Clean My Chicken Tractor?

    Well if you are trying the deep cleaning method then rake it once a week and then add more bedding on top every couple of weeks or so. After about a year I remove everything down to the floor and start all over. Remember clean chickens are happy chickens.

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Went out to water this morning and discovered something has eaten most of my corn!!! I guess it was crows. Well time to replant.

    I only free range mine when I'm home. How old are they? Do you have them in a brooder for them if they are less then 5 weeks?
