I strike the jackpot!
DW( she is an Electronic practical engeenr) work received a new company to represent, and they have this



Highly accurate and highly calibrated temp and hygro meter (0.01C and 0.01%!), which is part of an evaluation bord of a bigger system.

Guess what I am going to use it for?

Very cool! Have you seen the data sheet?

Whoever it was that wanted to see my hexagon hut breeder complex, I found some of these pictures. I have more pictures of the construction process if you want them.
This is how I started one half of it.
This side is divided into 2 equal size units. It can hold a rooster and up to 8 hens in each half but that is if they can get out first thing in the morning


That side is almost finished here and you can see the other half hexagon being build on the left. That side is 3 units. The end units are for pairs and the middle is for trios.


This is that 3 unit side showing the pair unit.


Here's the same unit doing double duty as a broody apartment.


I think this is its first winter. The breezeway between the sides allows access to all nest boxes, bulk feeders and roosts under roof.

It was me - thanks!!!

Now even accuweather is giving me ads for hatching eggs and dark brahma chicks.

Why must they pick my weakness??

Quote: Sally - read the Permethrin Spray thread, they talk a lot about the effectiveness, how long, etc., and how much cheaper this is compared to the dust, easy to spray the chickens on the roost (dose per bird isn't much), and easier to treat the coop as well. I think all those details are there. (Someone who was dealing with an recurrent outbreak used it, and kept reporting back "no mites" for quite a while...)

Do you have the link saved?

You got it, right?

Anybody like silkies?
Some of the things at the store yesterday.

Purely Poultry actually sells Silkie broiler chicks for raising for meat... I thought about getting some, but I already have an order in for 25 Naked Necks from Dunlap plus planning to hatch some of my own. That's PLENTY for this year...

Quote: @FaerieChicken , Brinsea sells an incubator cleaner/disinfectant concentrate that I bought when I got my Brinsea incubator. Not all that expensive, will likely last nearly forever...

EDIT: Never mind - I see the header says 32 oz. The photo is the 8 oz which is what threw me.

what the heck, you get four ovates and I posted the same in dry form and got notta lmao yer special!!
May I ask how long this actually is active since its wet form?
I need it to last thats why I use the powder and they always dust bath in shavings so it works two fold with the powder.
