Kazzy73 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Is it ok to buy the garden lime in the boxes from the garden centre,they sound like they are in pellet form when I shake the box I thought it would be powder??Just thought I would ask as I know my chooks will eat this if I sprinkle around their netted off area ,i am getting some sanitizing powder at the weekend so will use the 2 together is that right? Thank you for any helpful answers and tips. Karen x x x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Yes, that's fine it's totally safe to use (just calcium carbonate) you can also use it with the ground sanitising powder or any other powdered disinfectant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 I used to use the powder then could only find the pellets so used them. They're fine and the girls weren't interested in them at all . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
