Chicken workshop


Silver Lace Wyndote. I have just got chickens and they are now laying nearly 3 eggs / day. I have just the three so they are doing OK.
The chicken workshop
Keep the birds busy, hang greens so they can reach for them. Treat Lice with Derris dust. I was a bit dubious about this but the withholding period is only one day. Treat leg mites with sulphur powder mixed with vaseline. I used Paw Paw cream as a deterrant seems to work well. I shall mix with sulphur powder if required. Scatter food, rather than in dispensers, vary diet with mash. Treat for worms with milk, chilli and garlic mash monthly

Travel 2011

Just returned from Anda China. Not far from Hatbin in the North bordering Russia. Practiced Tai Chi with Chen Wang. Hot and at times humid and sometimes challenging. Hard work practicing 5 hours / day but survived quite well. Too much time spent travelling.
