mrs chook Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Ewwwww Just thought I'd clean the girls out and found red mite on end of roosting bars, first time! They seem to have small fly type things in their poo tray too, mm lovely. I ordered two superglugs today as sick of getting woodchip out of drink container troughs, might need plastic roosting bars too now All cleaned out now and getting on with making our tea.....Not really looking forward to it now tho All this with a bandaged and stitched finger, don;t rush up family, I'll do EVERYTHING!!

BarbaraJ Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 Oh dear. Out of interest did you use red mite powder? I use red mite powder and Diat.earth in my wooden coop and crossing all my fingers have had no red mite since March i'm hoping its because of these 2 not just luck lol whose to know!! I'm hoping to invest in the cube bars to replace my wooden ones but i need someone to measure them for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubyReckless Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 oh dear! poor you! I recommend getting your DH interested in cooking. A good blokey cookbook or a cooking course for Xmas, maybe? It revolutionised my life. DP went from "unable to do anything more than open tins or make pancakes" to our main chef with a very impressive repetoire of meals in 5 years. We had grilled salmon and homemade salsa verde with new potatoes, salad, and homemade salad dressing tonight. With a starter of smoked mackerel pate, to boot.
