    revolution ..yay!!

    do not use frontline. totally different ingredient and its not safe in those concentrations. there is a specific dose of selamectin(revolution) to give but you need to look it up. each box size has a different mg/ml so you have to use that to figure it out.

    What shape of roosts do you use in your chicken coop?

    2x4 flat side up they are heavy chickens . Salmon faverolles and Sussex. We can get 20-40 below some winters. No heat in coop just good insulation and ventilation.

    Official BYC Poll: How do you keep your flock warm in the winter?

    When I was a child we had chickens in Seattle and San Francisco area. Here in La Pine Oregon I know this may be a challenge. Hence I’ve decided on Faverolles chickens. The snow is already here this year so that’s slowed my coop building efforts for sure. This should be a great spot, as the shop...
