Really?

Yes, really.
Power line project manager told me he would have a load dropped off...
...but just kept shining me on.

He doesn't seem very nice.

He doesn't seem very nice.

Con men(and women) abound.

How high of a risk is it for chickens to get diseases from wild bird feathers? I found a Blue Jay feather in the leaf litter I dumped in the chicken run yesterday.

Do you guys deal with Wild Bird feathers being mixed in, & have your birds ever gotten sick from it?

It seems to be hard to avoid bird feathers.

Low risk, IMO.

Low risk, IMO.

Good to know, thanks.

Awhile ago, someone asked what Sweet PDZ was, when I suggested it for keeping smells down in coop. It is "a safe-fast acting odor neutralization and moisture absorption for a fresh, healthy chicken coop. ' All natural minerals. I found it on Amazon after googling its use and efficacy.

Just one mineral....zeolite.
Absorbs, and I believe neutralizes, ammonia.
But it won't do much for a muddy run.
