Re: [CHICKENS-101] Re: flies ewww

 

Ol' George--since you're in southern N.H. as I am, by any chance did you get a short but heavy "bloom" of irridescent blue-green "house-flies" late this summer?  It wasn't connected with the chickens, because at least one other horse-owning friend had them around the same time (we discovered our mutual infestation by accident).  The flies were different in colour to any I'd ever seen.  They were not blue-bottles.
 
<g> Remember I said DH likes to see what the chickens will eat?  He was all for offering the fly-paper strips to the chickens to see if they'd pick off the flies...  Somehow I didn't think fly-paper and chickens were a wise combination!
