Good Afternoon everyone!
Curious to know who uses both hemp and DE in the coop. I know hemp is an insect repellent, but would adding DE do an even better job of it?
add DE to the bottom, then cover with hemp? I do plan to use the deep litter method in the coop. In the run, I plan to use wood chips.
Also, peet moss....can i use the Miracle-Gro brand? (Plan to add it to a dust bath for the 5-week chickees) or does that include fertilizer that would not be good for the chickens?
would DE work in humidity? NJ has had a humid smmer this year!
