I used Wazine for the first time and hatched out perfectly good chicks. I didn't eat the eggs for 2 weeks though. I never wormed chickens before, I always tossed a pumpkin in their pen and let them have at it. I was told it's a natural wormer for chickens. Never had any problems. This summer has been hard on the flock and they have very loose stools. Even now that it has cooled off. I did switch their feed but they still get out and eat bugs and such. I've read alot about DE but have never used it. I never "clean" the coop as far as sanitizing it. I clean out the bedding and rake the ground and scoop out all the stuff they leave behind. I've never had a problem with bugs on my birds. I've had a few get bumble foot but took care of that easily enough and I spray their legs with WD40 from time to time just in case.

I used to go in and clean and using liquid seemed to make the fly populaiton worse. So I try to keep it dry.
