It's sunny but when it rains it gets stinky. We have a small compost are where I rake the poo. The area is 18x4, and about half is covered. Hardware cloth all around and dirt ground except 2 grazing box areas.
Hi there, I was wondering if anyone has ever use "odor destroyer" in their run. I saw it at odordestroyer.com and it sound safe. I was just wondering if anyone has tried it personally.
Thanks.
I'm still waiting to find out if the one we were questioning is a cockerel. They are only 3 weeks old. She/he is much better and has been integrated back in the flock so my hopes are high the it is a pullet.
First time chicken owner in North Central, MA. We have 2 Easter Eggers, 2 Welsummers, 2 Barred Rocks, and 1 RI Red. We had 2 but sadly lost 1 a few days after receiving her. They are a riot. They are almost 3 weeks old.
Just ordered my first batch of chicks. 8 of them. One was sickly, we sadly lost her and one was super aggressive and another was super aggressive, more experienced friends are questioning a roo. That one has since calmed down and has been add back into general population. I did email them...
I have one that will not let go. We have her separated but when we had he back in straight back to it she goes. Uggh. I don't know what to do.
Update...
Grumpy is now happy back with the ladies.
I was wondering is corid is safe if the chicks are not sick. I have a new baby that is sick and I'm not sure if coccidiosis is what's wrong but I wanted to give her corid to rule it out. Will it do harm if it isn't the problem? Thanks for your help.
Omg. I'm so happy to see this. I'm a chickie newbie and just got 8 babies that were shipped to me yesterday. One of them is so mean. She goes after the others eyes the will not let go. She was in time out for the night and all she did was "peck peck peck" at the clear plastic of her brooder...
