The last time we were at the farm we brought back a gigantic tire to use as a mega chicken dust bath. We finally got it set up this past weekend.
I found another free sand listing on marketplace, and we picked up a bunch of 5 gallon pails. Some of that sand ended up in the giant tire along with some coconut husk fiber, dirt, and diatomaceous earth.
Leftover sand for future projects...
Since we had extra sand, we also topped up the other dust baths.
Using some dirt left a few big pots available for repurposing. I am attempting to make additional nesting boxes for the chickens. So far, they haven't been interested.
They also haven't tested out the new dust bath. I wonder if the tire is too tall for them to realize what's inside. I guess I need to build some chicken steps. 😂
