Summer, I think you worry way too much a what people say in comments. You are a beautiful person inside and out and you owe no explanations about your daily life. You do you! Cody is energetic, creative and a good man, easy to tell. Love you guys for sharing about your life's journey and I applaud you for your accomplishments. BRAVO!
You can add apple cider vinegar to the chickens water can help repel mites, mint, lavender and rosemary in their boxes helps repel as well. Happy Birthday 🎉.
Here's a suggestion get the gray garage floor paint with the clear coat and do the bottom of the floor it really seals it up good and it makes life easier when cleaning just a suggestion
Nothing wrong with a little homestead animal poop! Hope you're utilizing what you've cleaned out, like in the compost, garden, etc. Poop-cleaning to pontoon...that's a good day!
Happy Birthday Summer. Suggestion when putting that stuff down start in the middle and work your way out. That way you aren't leaning over and breathing it till you get the middle done. Glad you all had fun.
The shovel you have is for scooping coal into the old coal furnaces to heat homes and outbuildings. As a child my family lived in homes with coal furnaces and I helped my father occasionally with this chore. We did use it outside to clear snow also because many tools were multipurpose that time.
Elector psp will kill the mites in one treatment. I spent years messing around with DE and other stuff and finally bought elector psp and saw an immediate improvement in my birds.
Happy Birthday Summer!!! Add some of the herbs mentioned on the nesting pads. It will help with the mites. I have also seen people put a small kiddie wading pool in the chicken area and the Diatomaceous earth in the pool for the chickens to take a "dust bath" which rids them of the mites.
Helpful hint. When using diatomaceous earth. You're supposed to only use a light dusting. If you put a thick layer, it won't be effective. I have ceramic eggs to put under my broody hens. I got them from Tractor Supply

That shovel was originally called a coal shovel--homeowners used it to shovel coal from their bins into their furnaces for heat in the winter -way back when !!
Happy Birthday Summer! I use DE around my house. Havent actually used it since I moved to Tn, the amount of cob webs and spiders all over my outside is irritating, so may need to get the DE spread around. But I do believe if you use it around the outside of your house or in your case the coop, it needs to reapplied if it gets rained on. Im sure there are more experts on the DE subject that can correct me if I am wrong on that. Have a blessed week and weekend
Hello 🤗 you did a really nice job of cleaning the chicken coop & you are so kind to your animals Cody & Summer 😉 Nice to get away with friends - Happy Birthday Summer 🎂💐🥰
I don't understand why people would complain about you touching your hair. It is your life. They need to mind their business, not yours. I think you both are very hard workers. I truly enjoy the content you share. Happy belated Birthday 🎈
Check out Becky’s Homestead, she’s an expert on Chickens. She says chickens need protein, canned tuna or other canned meat. I’m sure you can find inexpensive meat or worms. The reasons they keep picking is because the red on the picked chicken reminds them of meat. Give them more meat and that should end your picking problem.
Hello Summer and Cody, the homestead is looking good guys.The chicken coop looks good all cleaned up, that’s a four star rating for the girls now. Happy Birthday Summer🎂🎊🎉. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦
go watch a few episodes of the “fit farmer” his chicken tractors are awesome. definitely a little more space will help with the pecking, but it is just a chicken thing too. i had multiple levels for my girls and places the could roost. i have seen people build a secondary coop/area, and they just built a tunnel to those areas. so they are protected but can still free range i also never locked my girls up at night, hardly had any “arguing” amongst them. you’ll figure out what works for you.
My birthday is in August and back when I was doing basic training at Ft. Leonard Wood I had to deal with that wonderful Mo. weather/humidity and those damn little sweat bees that would on us and lap up the salt off our collective skins. The point is that I too am familiar with summer weather in "The show mw state". Hang in there we're all pullin for y'all.
The chicken don't normally eat when they are sitting on their eggs until the chickens are Hatch. They will leave the nest periodically, but they get back in time to keep the eggs at the right temperature. So let them alone they know what they are doing .
Happy Birthday Summer. Have you thought about an electric chicken netting for them to go into for free ranging. Then you could have a solar charger for it.

See to look at Temu they have great chicken rubber beds and artificial turf Mats you can take out and wash and put them back in after cleaning
I would get poultry and garden dust and sprinkle it around. They also make sprays that are natural that are supposed to help repel bugs as well.
Good job cleaning the coop. Happy Birthday Summer!

You can spread the diatomaceous earth easier if you use a condiment bottle. It will get in the cracks better.

Enjoyed watching your video,its awesome to see husband and wife working together for a cause❣️🌼🌷🌻🇺🇸
You should check with local coffee houses for used grounds. Just make a tray to dry them in the sun.
