Chickens and dogs

Deb Dikeman ,

If you have not used the area yet , it is my understanding that if you sweep up loose dry chic poop and spread powdered lime and let it weather for a while the sun/rain will take care of the rest with time.
As for the K-9 house it will depend how well you were able to clean the interior cracks and corners that the poop gets down into and later becomes dust and later can be breathed by dogs.
You can buy sanitizer for industrial chicken/poultry barn operations at your local farm supply and wet everything down and let sit and re-wash. I would think if you did this it would greatly lower risk to dogs.


Good Luck , oldhounddog

I've heard that chicken farms if not taken care properly can lead to disastrous effects on the surroundings. The number one effect is the emergence of many diseases, one of which is Bird flu which is deadly for humans and dogs.
