Food grade diatomaceous earth as been used by farmers for their chickens =
=3D
for many years. I think there is so many things that people talk about =3D
and it is like a scare tactic. I read many of these things on Clayart =3D
and you have to research things for yourself. =3D20
=3D20
I was raised on a large Wyoming cattle ranch and the chickens that were =3D
there were free range. The food grade diatomatious has been used for =3D
chickens to help with mites etc. It is usually mixed with dry dirt. =3D
Chickens dust themselves just to rid them of parasites. We discount =3D
things way to fast, everythig seems to be bad for us. We have to be =3D
more pragmatic in the use of all dry airborne materials. Air filtration =
=3D
systems always seem that they lift the air up and past our faces. I =3D
have never understood why the intake air isn't collected at floor =3D
level, go through the filtering systems and returned to the room from =3D
above.
=3D20
I don't want dialog, since there is so many on Clayart, just mentioning =
=3D
my thoughts. Everyone has to make their own decisions. If you don't =3D
like Mozart, don't listen to his music. It is up to an individual to =3D
make thoughtful decisions about everything in their lives.
=3D20
Be safe!!!! Keep making pots, the best is still in you and has yet to =3D
be done.
