How to Use Around the Chicken Coop
Apply First Saturday Lime around the base and perimeter of your coop approximately once a month. It can also be lightly sprinkled underneath your flock's pine shavings or hemp bedding and used in appropriate dust-bathing areas.
First Saturday Lime is designed for use around homes, animals, gardens, and outdoor spaces when used according to label directions.
Garden Use
Have a garden? (C'mon—you have chickens, so we're guessing there's a pretty good chance!)
Lime can be useful for raising the pH of acidic soil and providing calcium. Because not every garden needs additional lime, it's best to check your soil pH before applying.
Ingredients
Citric Acid, Calcite
