[CHICKENS-101] Re: The bug lamp

 

Hi Elizabeth. If you was a zapper the chickens won't have the fun of catching them live. I know that when chickens free range and find a lot of buggs if sure does cut down on the feed bill.

Has anyone done a study to see if the bug catching cuts down enough on the the chicken feed to cover the cost of electricity for the light? What would happen if I hung a bug zapper over the coop? Would my chickens love me?
