Helping Chicken Issues with Herbs

http://timbercreekfarmer.com

Herbs and ChickensAdding herb gardening to your chicken care routines will result in

healthier, happier chickens. Using herbal care along with conventional veterinary medicine results in strong immune systems,

healthy digestive tracts, and a long egg laying life for your hens.Herbs boost immunity, increase resistance to pathogens, and improve

overall health and appearance. Herbs are generally easy to grow,harvest and store. With even a

small garden or container, you can grow herbs to use in yourkitchen and have on hand for health problems in the flock.

to stressful situations. Attacks by predators, high heat, lack
