A place to talk about all things chicken.
Chicken Tips
*If your chicken has a booboo, you can apply neosporin or triple antibiotic ointment, but be sure it's the kind WITHOUT pain reliever. Pain relievers that end in "caine" are toxic to your bird.
*Food Grade Diotamaceous Earth or D.E. is a wonderful multi-purpose, natural helper of chickens.
-mix it with their feed to help prevent worms
-dust them with it to prevent mites and lice
-mix it in their bedding to kill and prevent mites and lice and fleas
-mix with water to white wash coop walls that may be infested with mites or other critters
-use to kill fire ants without putting poison in your grass where your chickens might get it
*Practice Chicken Biosecurity
-have visitors hose off their feet before coming to visit your coop
-protect your flock from unseen diseases by quarantining new birds for 30 days or more - and then introduce only one of your flock to the new bird.
-set aside a pair of shoes that you wear for trips to the chicken coop that you don't wear anywhere else, and hose them off often
**Remember, we can track in all kinds of diseases from other places on our feet and clothes.

Rover and Fido are actually younger than the rest. They look like 3 weekers to me.....
ReplyDeletetheir coloring is very different from each other. very cute.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping that they will look totally different from each other and lay two different colored eggs like dark blue or dark green or olive... something other than sky blue... got that... enjoy variety.. They are little sweeties
