Hi, I just joined. I’m in Indiana.
I can’t believe I’ve been reading this Forum most of the day!
I know chickens make a lot of dust, however, I never expected as much as there was. I took half of my greenhouse (the north side) and made a chicken house. And both are connected to the end of a mini barn, which I intended to use for a garage but never did, but the large garage door opens up into the greenhouse
I’ve raised chickens for years, however, last spring I cleaned my chicken house, and the mini barn, and have been sick ever since. First with a severe sinus infection, then one thing after the other. I had to get rid of my chickens—too sick to take care of them. I am just getting over it, and now i want some more chickens.
But I won’t hardly even go into the mini barn, or greenhouse, and am afraid to try to raise chickens like that again. So I am thinking of making just a small chicken house, maybe 4 X 4 and just have 6-7 chickens. I had about 25, before the possums killed half of them.
Anyone have these problems?
Any advice?
Of course, I am 81, so that does make a difference.
