Keep feathers in Tip-Top Shape

Dust bathing is the most natural way for chickens to reduce oils and parasites as well as keep their feathers clean. Providing a proper dust bathing area that incorporates Fresh Coop Dust Bath (100% Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth) will help keep feathers in excellent condition.

If a dust bath area has not been provided, your chickens may search out a suitable area for themselves. Keep dust bath areas under cover, away from rain and snow. Chickens will naturally scratch out a depression in dirt/soil to create a natural dust bath. Fill depressions 3-4" deep with a mixture of any of the following:

loamy dirt or sand & Fresh Coop Dust Bath (50/50)
peat moss & Fresh Coop Dust Bath (50/50)
Fresh Coop Dust Bath (100)

If a natural depression is not made by chickens' buckets, old tires or large containers can be used as dust baths.
