Rocky Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Hi there, am complete novice here - so, the Bio Dry - I sprinkle that on the dropping tray and on the area of grass under the run that is tricky to reach in to daily poo pick?? How much do I sprinkle?? Thank you very much in advance for you reply Am loving my girls!! Thanks, K. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottage Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I just put it in the run, about a cup full per square meter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted August 29, 2014 Author Share Posted August 29, 2014 Super, thank you Pottage! The wind blew as I did it - so it went everywhere apart from where I wanted it!! Ha ha! I may not have been generous enough with my spinkling, so will pop out and add some more (another excuse to chicken watch!) x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pottage Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Aw, that was the first day we got them home from the horrid farm They look quite a lot different these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottage Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 One of my babi... erm I mean chickens, has just been verry ill with e. coli so when I found out I put enough bio dri in their run to probably kill an elephant! I try and do it on days when there is no wind, and sprinkle it quite close to the ground and then run it through with a rake so the girls dont instantly think it's some new type of food and try and eat it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 Ahh - lovely girls! Thanks again Pottage - another silly Q - how often do I need to sprinkle? Now that my babies (!) are settled they are using a large penned off area so the run isn't as full of poo, so dont' think I will need to move it for a bit longer.....thanks again for all my Q's. Want to get it right! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I sprinkle it all over - copious amounts in the poo tray and when I rake out the run I bung a layer down there too before putting new aubiose in. Now I'm wondering about a nice sprinkling in the greenhouse and all over the grass. Paranoid is my middle name of course! LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
