lizinsa Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 I had a quick search but couldn't find it, so I was wondering if the experienced Omleteers could create a shopping list of the must-haves for when people 1st get their chickens? What would you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LottyJ1 Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Hiya, Good question as you do learn so much as you go along! In my experience and thanks to people on here I would reccomend: Mixed corn as they love it as a treat in the evenings Meal worms - its like a drug (I have also been using earth worm treats) Diatom - when cleaning the house - a must have to keep red mites away Poultry shield for cleaning and herban and ACV for the water to keep them healthy. I also use for bedding in the house wood pellets that I also use as bedding for my horse - you soak it in water and it fluffs up. Very good and economical. I use ex-batt pellets as I have ex-batts. I hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
