Yeah, that's going to be an issue, but they'll be in the "dog room" and I'll be doing LOTS of cleaning!

I have a chicken/cat room right now for my special needs chickens and my teenagers that are too young to go outside. My bantam special needs hen is in the living room with my husband - they watch TV together, lol..really, they do. The babies are in my retreat/office and I might end up keeping my one Serama rooster in there with me since we are very close. I'm working on getting a chicken only room built downstairs this summer to control the dust and feathers

And yes, I clean everyday - deep clean once a week.

I can verify, there is no ode de chicken inside the house!

I think chickens and chicks get stinky when there is excess moisture. As long as it's dry... it doesn't smell.

Now only if chicken poop was more like parakeet poop... in size and consistency, not in it's 3D nature.

I have to say the worst part is the dust. There are days when it drives me over the edge....
 
For dust around here, we use one of these:

http://www.amazon.com/Honeywell-50250-99-97-Round-Purifier/dp/B00007E7RY

We only run it on high with a timer 4 hours a day. Really helps out in addition to weekly vacuuming when you cram in 2 humans and 8 fur or feather animals in a concrete box. 2 hours at night to combat the dust from 4 hamsters digging around each of their cages, and 2 hours in the day to combat the 4 birds putting their pixi dust everywhere. Just make sure you get the lifetime hepa you can clean, else it gets $$$.
 
*Evil grin* You all know you want some of this sweetness in your homes

Dust? Who cares about dust? It's not dust unless you can write your name in it anyway... so never learn to write your name! Solved!
