I have always heard that liming the floor is a good way to control parasites; worms, cocci, mites & lice. I've always heard that you should use hydrated lime. I've never done this, as we have no where else to put our chickens, and I've always heard that with lime (hydrated lime) you have to keep them off of it for a period of time or it will burn their feet. I just read about agricultural lime and was wondering how well it does to control parasites, and if anyone has had good, bad, or blah experiences with it?
