I found Exzolt at this web-site

It's pricey, but with eighty birds and six coops, I need something that will work in water.
I hope this will help others with mite problems.

Oh my gosh, I had never heard of depluming mites. I have several (5) RReds that have been looking like yours. They are the only ones out of 60 laying hens. Should I treat the whole flock? thanks so much for sharing.
I use both in different coops.
I use sand in an old camper we converted into a chicken coop. It works great, but it must be play sand. If you use construction sand it is to dusty.
The sand stays dry. Wet sand is no good! I also occasionally add sweet PDA stall refresher.
Very easy to clean...
Both, and now I added a paper towel. It's still only at 49%.
I candled and I think my air sacks are to big.
I didn't discard any eggs, there were 3 that I wasn't sure of, but I thought I can get rid of them later.
I decided not to use it this time. But I am wondering if I could start at anytime during incubation?
Hope my candlleng goes well. I am having a hard time keeping the humidity at 45%.
May 8th will be 28 days. I'm incubating turkey eggs.
I plan to candle tomorrow.
I only expect half to be fertile, as not all my hens were sitting for my tom.
Do you use the cool down feature?
Congratulations. So exciting.
Baby turkey's have to be so strong to get out of their shell. When I got my first turkey egg I was amazed at how hard it was to crack open.
So maybe I should open the vent all the way and add water to both channels?
I do remember reading that keeping the vents shut for the first three days is ok, to get humidity up.
But why wait.
Not sure if I should be trying to achieve 45-50% humidity?
Great pictures!
That's the only animal I fear, with my turkeys and chickens.
They are so strong, they can just tear your coops apart if they really want in.
So this web-site http://www.thepoultrysite.com/articles/2908/incubating-eggs-at-high-altitudes/
does not consider anything under 4921 high altitude?
This link was from Sally Sunshine's great incubating tread.
What Things are Different at Altitude?
Air always contains about 21 per cent...
Thanks for the welcome WVduckchick!
My room humidity is only 40%.
I have done a little research on high elevation hatching, I do plan on adding some fabric for lock-down. Quilt batting sounds perfect. Thanks
I did not buy the pump. I may rethink that.
Hi Stephine,
I like having more tools in the toolbox, thanks.
Where do you buy your sulfur, I can only find the pelleted kind?
I have been reading this tread for awhile, I don't post much. Seems like by the time I've read all my subscriptions it's time for bed.
I'm located in Plumas County.
