That would work for the odor. Glad you thought of it. MaiMaiPG wrote: > Big 12 pound bags of soda are available at WalMarts/Sams etc---often > with the swimming pool supplies.

Re: [Felvtalk] Chick feed for litter
Big 12 pound bags of soda are available at WalMarts/Sams etc---often with the swimming pool supplies. Usually about $6.00. On Jul 10, 2011, at 9:39 AM, Lorrie wrote: Thanks for the info, Beth.

Re: [Felvtalk] Chick feed for litter
Thanks for the info, Beth. We have a Tractor Supply about 12 miles away, and tho we don't go there often, I want to try this chick feed. We live in a very cool climate, so maybe we won't get the weevils or sour smell that sometimes comes from wet corn. I scoop frequently too which should help.
