Hello Im Daisy 77 which is actually my goats name. Ive been on this site millions of time but i am in need of help big time. I have a small farm 8 hens 1roo (Rhode islands and golden laced wyndottes) and 6 on their way by day after Easter. Two Nigerian dwarf Goats..buck and doe which is due her second kidding in two weeks. Ive dairy farmed Holistens through childhood..love love farming.
Anyway. Last summer my hens got cocci. i cleaned and cleaned..done sulfer antibiotics then amprolim and probiotics and extra vitamins. Everyone seemed to get over it. Well i was cleaning this morning and there it was in the poo again..rrrrr! My run is on a hill so water can drain good but wouldnt u know it doesnt drain worth a hoot..we have had alot of rain so its been really hard keeping the run dry.the coop stays nice and dry i use amonina in it. Im numb at this point the only think i can think to do is. I have a blow torch. (no not burn it to the ground but dang Im so over this) no i thought od torching the soil in the run good then liming it. They free range alot of he day so i dont know what to do about where they range. I dont want to bring these new babies in all this mess ...rrrrr can anyone help with oher than the usual.
Thank U Abunch!
