Instruction
1. In our area climate quite severe, in the winter happen frosts up to-30 degrees. And to build to hens the room small and with thin walls as to pigeons, it is quite inexpedient. In hard frosts at hens combs, as a rule, freeze and begin to die off, as a result of a bird are ill and lose a yaytsenoskost. In order that it did not occur, warm the hen house. Upholster walls with shingle. For this purpose beat shingle to hen house walls obliquely, at an angle 45 degrees. At first make it in one party, then, crossing shingles, in another. Upholster so all walls of the hen house. Except shingle it is possible to apply rods from a goat willow.
2. Now prepare clay solution with sawdust. For this purpose soak clay and dissolve it with water so that solution as liquid sour cream turned out. Add to this solution sawdust gradually until it becomes rather dense and sticky. Such glinoopilochny solution mix in some better high-capacity that mix was enough for all hen house. Now let's it stand and "be fermented" a little.
3. Begin to plaster hen house walls. Outline solution in the bottom of a wall big flat cakes. Level it a plaster poluterok. The layer of such warming plaster has to be not less than 3-5 centimeters. Try to do a layer uniform, carefully close up room corners, it is possible even to make curves there solution that corners were warmer. After full plastering of the hen house let's walls dry, on it several days will leave. After drying, solution on walls will a little crack. Jam walls and especially cracks mix of clay and sand in the ratio 1 to 2. Whitewash walls not extinguished lime, for this purpose buy lime in granules, fill up in a bucket, pour a water half-bucket. In a minute, lime will begin to react with water, to boil and to heat up strongly. After the end of reaction part a bucket of a dopoln with water, add a spoon of table salt.
4. Hens have feature everything to peck, especially in the winter at a lack of vitamins they can peck out all lower part of plaster. To avoid it, upholster a wall below on height about a meter drevplity or any plastic. Do not forget to upholster also walls about a perch, where hens can reach that place beaks.
