I agree. I just try to put myself in their "shoes." I also try to figure in the labor it's going to cause me with the cleaning, lol.
Deb, you use the pellets in your coop? Where do you get them?

Okay all you enablers, I have to get outside and do chores. Have a good day!

Oh SURE... you guys carry on multiple page conversations while I'M butchering chickens.

 

[MrsDeb]

WW you can come over here and butcher mine while we chat! lol....


Aimee, I get them from Lowes or Home Depot. I usually hit both to see who has them the cheapest. Spenards has been known to have them cheaper at times......

I spread the stove pellets out and then I put shavings on top, It softens their landing when coming off the roosts etc.....

I have a meat hen that has a broken leg.....ARGH!!! I told Jim I'd transfer her by hand to make sure she eats and drinks until he gets home tomorrow night....

Yep, and yep. Just keep in mind that a little goes a long way. I have the 8 oz bottle, and it's lasted over a year. Don't pay the extra hazardous fee to get the larger volume.
I sent you a message on FB...
