    cooped up versus covered in ash

    We're in no danger where I live. The girls are self-trained to go into their coops at night. Other than that they're unruly, wild beast.

    Two small buildings. Each is 5'X5'.

    A literal coop.

    I have two coops and two runs.

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    I have 5 chickens which I could never keep together. The RIR would kill the silkie and the d'uccles

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    From the EPA: Cleanup: Avoid stirring up or sifting through ash as much as you can. Avoid actions that kick ash particles up into the air, such as dry sweeping. Before sweeping indoor and outdoor hard surfaces, mist them with water to keep dust down. Follow with wet mopping. Use a damp cloth...

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    Expletives are not allowed, but suffice it to say that a string of them came to mind when I saw your picture. You have more faith in my chickens than I do, but my girls live in pristine air by comparison. :(

    There are so many indexes now. I've been using this one: https://www.iqair.com/

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    I'd rather not expose my girls to an unknown flock. It's a lose-lose situation. I think Owenp_2 is right.

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    I've decided that I'm going to coop them up on "unhealthy" <150 AQI. It's hard to predict what the air quality will be. I'm going to play it by ear. :hmm

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    The alpha chicken has a history of pecking me hard so I don't get close to her. We've reached an understanding. That's why I can't get too close to them. :(

    There are no N-95 masks made for chickens.

    They've been a lot more understanding since the Covid-19 egg crisis. :D

    26 miles from the Bobcat fire and 82 miles from the El Dorado Fire.

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    They were free-range. For the city, I have a large backyard.

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    I was hoping not to accept defeat. Nature has finally won.

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    That's a lot easier said than done. They annoyed all of America when I kept them in a small run. The neighbors have yet to call the police. Everyday life has become increasingly difficult.

    cooped up versus covered in ash

    The west coast has the world's worst air quality and I have no idea how long this will last. As advised, I cooped up my chickens and had done so for three straight days. Suffice it to say that they hated it. 2 of them stopped eating, 2 others stopped drinking, and the fifth wasn't doing either...
