So my first chicks are almost a week old now. We have them in our eat-in kitchen/mudroom/laundry room inside a rabbit cage for easy viewing with the kids.
What do you all do about the odor - besides keeping everything clean and changing out the litter regularly? Is there a particular product, cover scent, or type of litter that would help reduce or mask this "chick odor"? I am using ~ 2-3" of pine shavings, rake it around every day, and just cleaned it out and replaced all the litter today (after 5 days).
It's not terrible, but my wife would certainly be happier if we could cut down on the smell a little...
