I've been researching and preparing to start a small "backyard flock" of laying hens. I've gotten a small coop, and most other supplies, however, I'm having a hard time finding Food Grade Diatomaceous Earth. You're supposed to mix this with the bedding material on the floor of the coop to control mites and odors. Where is the best place to purchase this, and other poultry supplies? I'm having a harder time than I thought I would with all the farms in this area.
I want to get everything set before even thinking of introducing residents to the coop.
p.s. If anyone is selling pullets in this area, please let me know! I hope to get 3-4 pullets of various breeds.
