To: CHICKENS-101@yahoogroups.com Date: Saturday, April 23, 2011, 9:44 PM   Hi All, Is it necessary to lime the floor of my chicken house? The droppings board is cleaned at least 5-6 times a week, and the rest of the floor is raked out every 2-3 days, and fresh pine shavings put down. I remember always liming my chicken pens at least once a week in years gone by, but now I really don't remember why I did this. It's been over 10 years since I've raised chicks and things have probably changed a lot during that time. Anne H. FV, GA
