What goes into the chicken salve? and how do you make the coop freshener, could really uise something that smells good in the coop this time of year!

 

[Crafty-Duck]

The salve has.........

Comfrey
Lavender
Calendula <---------- I infused the dry herbs in the olive oil!
Chamomile
Oregano

Beeswax
Olive oil

I also added a little lavender essential oil.

*******************************************************************
The coop cleaner (which smells really good)

White vinegar
Orange peel
Lime peel
(or you could use lemon)
Mint (I used apple Mint) optional!!!


I have seen some people add a Cinnamon stick


Put peels and mint in a Mason jar then fill the rest of the jar up with white vinegar (NOT APPLE CIDER VINEGAR!!!!!)

Shake it every other day for 1 month!!! (it's a bummer to wait so long

)

I forgot you can dilute the orange vinegar with water to make it go a bit further!!! it's great for disinfecting too!!!
