In the Brooder
Hello everyone!
I got 12 cornish rock hens (broiler chickens) and 12 Rhode islands reds.
The Rhode island isn't so bad but my 12 Cornish hens are eating and pooping machine.
They poop so much that the grass can't recover fast enough and my grass backyard is beginning
to become a dirt backyard.
It isn't that bad with the Rhode island Reds....but the Cornish is destroying everything haha
They poop so much to the point that my backyard is starting to smell.
Just random questions...these 12 Cornish is pretty much hard to take care (in terms of cleaning)
How does the commercial farms with 10,000 hens deal with this kind of problem?
I know that they don't move the coop around like i do with my hens.
How do they manage to clean the area?
(sorry, i am trying to expand my chicken farm and i am in my trial testing with 24 hens
But want to raise broilers in the near future. Just want to know how to keep up with the cleaning)
