lisaroo2 Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 ... they go and make their own! I worried about the fact that the girls hadn't got a dustbath. I came on here and asked for advice and made them one. Then what do they do? This... and this... But they do look sweet and have been in chook heaven with the sun and a cool breeze.

lisaroo2 Posted May 24, 2008 Author Share Posted May 24, 2008 Is it ok to put red mite powder in the dust bath? I've put loads over the bars in the eglu today and wondered about the bath?

Egg Lou Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 These look so sweet! Hope you don't mind me asking something on your thread Lisa.. But. .. been wondering if there is going to enough room in a standard cube run to have a good dust bath.. they can have one outside too but will be in run till about 6.30pm.. Does anyone have any photos on one in their cube run? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

surferdog Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 This is the one Sylvie made in the flower pot. The dustbath I made is in the tin bath next to it ( you can just seen the handle). Oh and Sylvie's head used to be white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
