    Would this work for quail?

    Thank you for the input :) it does have a burried apron 18 inches outside all the way around that was installed for the chickens. Right now we have a good amount of snow in Michigan so nothing new will be happening for a few months at least! :)

    Mites in the hen house! Help!

    I just made a post about tiny poppy seed bugs in my pdz under poop. I found like 5-6 yesterday and checked ladies and saw nothing on them or in the bedding. I used some seven dust and bought some Saturday lime. Did you figure out what they were?

    Last night I saw maybe 5 or 6 tiny bugs that looked like moving poppy seeds under the poop I was scooping out of my pdz poop board. I immediately lost my damn mind and checked the bedding and nest boxes and saw nothing, I checked all 8 chickens with a flashlight in several spots (neck, butt...
