grracee Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 i was thinking when the weather picks up and the mud dries out i might give the girlies a good clean as their feet etc. are all muddy so i was just wondering whether anyone could give me any advice on washing/cleaning a chicken?? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 the best way to get rid of mud balls from feet is to gently pick at the ball (with clippers or nail scissors) and remove it bit by bit being very careful not to cut the nail until all the mud is removed. If it's too hard, soak the feet in some warm water until it loosens the mud. Gently and bit by bit is the way to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted March 7, 2010 Share Posted March 7, 2010 For feet cleaning we stand our girls in warm water with a squirt of ecover. After a little soak stand them on a towel and scrub with an old toothbrush, then back in the water for a rinse and then out again for a towel dry.
