    Cleaned all three coops. Thoroughly sprayed everything including birds. Haven't seen a single fly all afternoon. We'll see how mosquitoes do tonight.

    mosquitoes.

    no electricity out at the coop so a zapper is not an option. picked up some permethrin to try. says you can spray birds directly.

    mosquitoes.

    Question. Is there anything I can hang in the coop to keep the mosquitoes out? Can deet be used on chickens? I have bare bottom chickens because they pick at the mosquitoes and pluck out feathers. I live in central Florida. at the edge of a swamp. We are overrun.

    Topic of the Week - Toxic treats and foraging

    I know one thing you should never give your chickens is watermelon. A friend of mine had four hens and a rooster. She tossed a quarter of a seedless watermelon in the pen and they devoured it. About eight hours later she had four dead hens.

    medication use

    Thanks for all the guidance, unfortunately I lost my sweet girl this morning. I gave her the tylan 200 a few days ago and she appeared to look better yesterday but this morning she was listless and having trouble breathing. later she slipped away quietly . Hopefully she went knowing she was loved.

    medication use

    I was told by several experienced farmers, and also backed that research when I found this site, that Tylan is the best shot for coryza or mycoplasmosis.(White foam from eye). All I can find says it is an injection.Is it the same as what is put into her water? I haven't given her anything yet...
