Thanks Azriel, I believe you are right. I do believe ladies generally have more sensitive noses. If I have to I will hire an air quality specialist to check air quality inside my home. No one else seems to be complaining.
10 eggs today! The boys and I also applied some "Rooster Booster" anti-peck treatment to three chickens that were losing feathers by their tail (two were the EE's, one was a Barred Rock). We found it at Big R, and it is pine tar based, with Aloe and a couple of other things in it. It is purple in color. We tried to find Blue-Cote but Western Ranch Supply and Big R did not have it. Just don't want them to become bare-butted, tailless chickens before winter!
Dug, try making quiche with the extras you will love it!! we also love egg salad sandwitches, egg potato salad, heck there is a whole world of eggs lol.Got 12 eggs today from our 12 pullets for the first time! I never thought our chickens would be laying this well this early (23 weeks). The eggs are still small, at 1.4 to 1.7 ozs, but sure tasty. I eat all I want and have given away 3 dozen and an 18-pack so far.
A question for my fellow Montanans: My wife and I are divorcing and I am staying in my home, she has moved out. We are fighting for custody of our two boys, ages 5 and 8. Today I let her alone in the house for 3 hours while she boxed up some of her stuff. When she was done, she complained of a strong chicken dander odor in the house and advised me to increase air purification. She said chicken dander spreads disease. The boys and I cannot smell the chickens in the house. Our coop is about 4' from the SW corner of the house, normally downwind, but the run is right against the house. The coop and run is under a wood deck and adjacent to the daylight basement. I usually open some of the upstairs windows at night. I run one or two air purifiers with ozone and UV upstairs almost continuously. My house is conventional wood frame construction with good windows.
Is she just throwing out a red herring to claim my home is a bad environment or might she have a valid point? I have seen many pictures on this site showing the coop and run next to houses. Thanks.
yeah I find blue cote wears off to fast, aprins are a great alternative .Im sorry for what you are going through!
