    Temperature in coop for eggs

    I usually bring them inside about the 17th or 18th day. Also if you don't have a Candler you can use a very bright flashlight preferably LED and carefully pick up the eggs and Shine the flashlight from the backside and you can see if the egg is full of chick. In the last 2 or 3 days you can...

    denagard and tetracycline

    If you opt for the tetracycline, oxytet make sure and give it for the full 14 days because a lot of this stuff is resistant now my choice is erythromycin or Tylan soluble and works very well denagard is used as a preventative I would pull the denagard as it usually is not effective in treatment...

    Standlee Flock Fresh

    Also you can use regular large pine shavings or small finer Pine shavings and buy a bag of pdz in the horse section which is the same thing that is in Coop clean and it's much cheaper to do it this way and then just sprinkle it in with your Pine shavings it works wonderfully well

    Standlee Flock Fresh

    I much prefer Coop clean over flock fresh The Coop clean with the pdz keeps the ammonia down and has no odor what I have noticed about the flock fresh if it is raining or humid it has a horrible smell and since I just cleaned both coops out and used it for the first time it hasn't been in there...
