Poultry Building Hag Straw Lot Hens Healthy
C J Miller near the city edge describes a straw left poultry building added to a 12 by 40 hog house. The six and a half foot high ceiling allows air circulation through open ends while straw insulation keeps heat balanced, light enters through all sides, and hens prefer dark nesting areas. Miller says parasites won’t gather in straw with proper sanitation.
