I again about the deep liter method. I’m only a year into chicken keeping and I learned real quick this winter that I didn’t want all that stuff piling up in there. I only use straw under the roost bars. I put down a trap, DE and straw. I use shavings on the rest of the coop. I pull that trap out every couple of weeks and dump it in my garden beds. Works perfect.
Hello from Texas Patara. Happy 2020 😊 Girl I have a PhD in poultry watching you. The first time I saw my birds dust bathing I thought they were having a die-in, laid out sideways and kicking. Then my yard was filled with holes and I would have sworn we had a gopher invasion 😂 On our new place during dry weather we will have a baby pool full of wood Ash, DE and sand. Thanks for all the great common sense advice, you have helped more than you know. Hugs from Houston.
That ROOSTER 🐓 "rooted" on your EVERY. SYLLABLE. LOL He KNOWS your BEAT. 🎵
I always learn something watching your videos. When I was knee to a grasshopper, we raised chickens to harvest, for eggs, and a job for me from the folks. I hated to clean out the coop.
What a great vid that is! I find your down to earth, straight to the point manner informative, so easy to watch unlike some who repeat themselves so many times it's like pulling teeth 1 by 1. Painful. Definitely subscribing, keep up the good work, cheers!
Even though I no longer live on a farm I still love your videos and advice. Maybe I can get back there one day. Happy New Year.
We live in RI. Our daughter has chickens. I know our area is different than yours but I try my best to pass on any info I can that she should be aware of. Thanks. Happy New Years Day!!
D.E. is what we use too! We have 60 hens and 8 roosters. Always mite free and healthy! You know your stuff. Activated charcoal pellets are great to scatter in food. Many health benefits...
Old bee deep bee box with old lid works great for dust box. Add into the box as you suggested.
Just love your videos! Happy New Year!🎉
Squirrel!!!! Oh my you & I are so much alike. I was singing right along with you. Happy New Year!
Once again, another great video with a lot of good info! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thank you sooo much. You really do pay attention to your fans and followers. Thank you again Patara!
You are most welcome! xo
well, well, finally a video that makes sense, awesome , did exactly as u did, based in south africa , cape town, keep up the awesome videos,
I really enjoyed the video you did a great job explaining how to keep the lice and mites away. I've diatomaceous earth since they came out with I use it and all my animals.
Awesome info.. I can remember you doing the dust bath bin in a past video...
Have a great evening ⛄⛄⛄
Ha! Chicken boot camp..love it! I’m one to really like that energy and substance! Thanks a ton!!! Happy chicken sister to ya!!
Love your videos. So much personality!
Happy New Year! Love always seeing a kitty
I love to watch you. YOU are so right. KEY is cleaning. I am a clean freak! and mine still got Mites. I think it's because I got it from a new chicken I bought. But Mine Free Range. Not sure if that makes it worse? So my ? Do free range have more issues or less ?
Hey I LOVE your hat. Thanks for the info!
Love it, if I get chickens, will have the information needed. Thanks
Love you, Patara!
Great video and fantastic information!!!
Happy New Year from Quebec (Canada)
Like I've said before.. you are my go to girl, when I get to have chickens!!
I would love to see your farm.💓 You do what works for you.
I have found by just taking all bedding out and then spray with soapy water and let dry before adding new bedding and dte works really well in the coop.
Learn so many things from you, thanks
Happy New Year...good info.
Excellent info!
I appreciate Your Channel so much. Thanks
OK. We live in "Wash"ington state, talk about rain. We have had 2 solid weeks of rain. I clean hen house weekly(OCD). I have a plastic kiddy pool under cover, full of sand, diatomasios earth, wood ash. The girls love it. As I grow a ton of herbs. I throw lots of that in the hen house. As I told you my girls are young and I didn't expect them to begin laying until Late February. Guess what. I have eggs coming out my ears. What a surprise. I can't give them away fast enough.
LOVE IT!!! xo
So true, i have a small pool of sand, and use DE also
Thanks Patera 💕✌️🌱
We only do the deep bed method if the weather is in the negative temps for consecutive days. Honestly, I don't like it at all and only do it during the coldest months for as short a duration as possible. We have 80 hens so it gets nasty in there quick! Plus, it takes SO much longer to clean it out when it builds up like that.
Ur weather is very similar to ours in south central Pa, and I use same this you do...Thank Patara👍
thank you. appreciate your being you. very helpful.
Thank you for the tips! I am about to get chickens for the first time and I am really needing information :)
Great video, Miss Patara! -Melissa E.
Have a Very Blessed New Year!
Hi, from upstate NY. Recently me and my husband have noticed mite or flea bites on ourselves. We maintain a small flock of birds and now that hard winter is here, they don't have places to dust bath. We think our personal infestation has come from a recent intense coop cleaning and straw replacement. Have you ever been personally infected with chicken mite bites? We will take up your suggestion about installing a dust bath pool in one of our structures. Thanks for you info.
Thank you.
Good info wish I would have found this video earlier. We did deep litter method here in Oklahoma and just realized now our chickens have lice we have 50 birds at least and multiple coops. We dusted coops with DE and will set up better dust bath areas. Looking at getting elector psp to treat them. They free range 3 and half acres most days so concerned about them getting them right back. Also what do with the bedding we pull out of coop? We have bees and other beneficial insects that we want to protect.
Thanks, I like the DE
As always great information! Blessings! :)
Good information 👍. I will share this with my family members that have chicken's. We have ducks and mites/ fleas are not a problem. DE is a very good product. Takes care of Internal worms and ants in the coop. Thank you mam!
I like you.
Thanks for the good information!
Thanks for video
Always a pleasure
Happy New Year all the best for 2020! or as I like to think, the roaring twenties😜
Subscribed... awesome info.
very very helpful. where did you get your nesting boxes. thank you
Awh I do love watching you♥️
Great advice! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Patara. Do we have to put a non toxic paint on the exposed wood indoor frame or perching wood?
Happy New Year🎉🥳
In researching ivermectin pour on..it says for cattle use, is this what I want?
Thoroughly enjoyed this video from start to finish but the fat kitty at the end was by far the best part.
if cost effective, are wood pine shavings a better choice than straw? i live in the PNW where is rains ALOT and i dont think the dust bath would stay dry out in the run. i have 10 birds in a 8x8 shed.
Yes the treatment you were taking about to put on their necks, where can you purchase it.
Thank you#!!
the DE I bought this time at Rural King was not white but a grey color. Is this still ok to put in their coop and surrounding area?
A good reminder for me to get out that DE.
If you don’t have wood ash what else can you use? I’m in SW Florida (Arcadia) I have 12 RI reds, we had chickens when I was little but it’s been years, but now that we have land we have started our little homestead. I want to keep them as clean and healthy as possible.
01:20 .... that's a handsome rooster. Being a flyfisherman, and a flytyer ... those roosters make my eyes glaze over ~8^) Do you have a peacock .... jest kiddin .... or am I? LOLzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! What about a kiddie pool for a dust bath, or is that overkill? I'm just thinking out loud here ..... I don't own any critterz except a dog myself. I don't have any birds, but have observed many kinds of birds, from sparrows to wild turkeys dusting themselves. Happy New Year to you and your family, plus all your critterz ... take care.
I haven't gotten many notifications . Don't know if you are busy or I am missing the videos.
The girls look lovely! And so do the boys! I hate the deep bedding!! Great video. X O
Can you provide a "recipe" for the dust bin? Sand/Wood Ash/DE?? So, wood ash from your wood stove? A few pieces of "charcoal" OK? Great video! Thanks!
Great Video, I use these tips and tricks on my own birds already. However, I do not have access to White Food Grade DE, and do not online shop. Is the regular grey DE better than none. I have been using the grey DE for years and it seems to work for me.
Yes-just make sure it is Food Grade. Thanks for watching!
Coooooool!
How is pellet stove ash to use?
I don't like deep bed method either, down right gross, the smell is disgusting. Happy new year!
That hydrated lime ain't just for pickles and a little peat moss. Keep preaching!
imo the best thing to do is preventative maintenance do not wait to see mites before taking the correct actions
Wood ash? What is that?
I don't have them but now if I get them I know how to get rid of them and prevent them.
Where is the best place to get sand?
Sweet cows you have.
How can I get rid of scaly legs on my rooster please?
👋😃
That chicken you're holding is like "yeah my mom is holding me!!!"
That’s Oklahoma
