I put garden lime down on the floor, and a fine sprinklin of preth dust and then shavings....it helps with spiders makin webs too, hate them all covered up with chicken dander... grosses me out! and I do the ivermectin pour on and ON a schedule. I have seen this stuff at a friends house, NEVER EVER EVER want it either. I use it and safeguard on my dogs too, alternating injectable oral and pour on. prevents all with the fenben heartworm including. But its not safe on some types of dogs... its the secret meds that no Vet wants you to know

We're all different. I don't worm on a schedule. In fact, in my life I've only wormed 4 chickens.

I don't use DE in dust baths. Mine are wood ashes, sand, a bit of soil and ag lime.

In my opinion DE has some affect on a internal parasites, but its depend on the chicken breed, an the genus of the parasite. I don't think that it has all the fitters that they say that it hase!
See this link it is a good one!

They are annoying to the chicks, as they're always exposed to the glaring light, not to mention expensive to operate or the fire hazard aspect. If you ever try a heat plate, you'll wonder how you ever got along without it. It's amazing how calm and quiet chicks are with these heaters.

Do you know where you can get the heating pads? I'd like to maybe get one.

Thanks everyone! I'm heading away from the 'puter. I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the day. Sorry for setting off the hot buttons!!!

Well I'm heading outside to do some prep to waterproof my coop a little better. We are supposed to get a pretty big rainstorm tomorrow. Biggest one we've seen the past few years. I hope it does rain - we need it!!!

 

[ChickenCanoe]

That is extremely unusual.
Would be a problem.
I'm still not worming unless I know they have a severe worm infestation and what kind.
