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.
