Worried about neighbor's use of Round-up

Hi, welcome to BYC!

Thanks, everyone. Moving coop isn't possible, but I appreciate the feedback. What a lovely way to have a community--centered on our feathered friends!

Maybe you could possibly talk to the neighbor and remove the weeds for him, either with vinegar or by hand.

I would do everything I could to get the coop somewhere else otherwise. Roundup will make them sick. It will seep into the ground around the coop as well as in the air.

Maybe a temporary hoop coop & run for when he sprays (if he insists and will tell you ahead of time)?

Welcome!

Welcome BYC! Have you tried talking to your neighbor about his herbicide and your chickens health?

Welcome to the coop! I use the Forums and Articles tabs at the top of the page to do research. You can get lost for hours. It's nice to know you are minutes away from getting help with questions and emergencies!
