These are the two main reasons why farmers have a wet litter problem. Professor John Walker, poultry scieptist at the O.A.C., feels insulation, ventilation, stir- ring of the litter, and the right placement of waterers can help beat the problem, Install watering equipment up on the dropping pits so the spill- age isn't going in the litter, or put the waterer up on a wooden platform so the spillage falls through the platform; the birds won't be able to track through the wet litter," says Professor Walker. Fans? They'll only help if the house is insulated., The moisture has to be vaporized. And you "have to have animal heat, or sun heat or litter heat" to vaporize the moisture. An important prin- ciple here, says Professor Walker, is that thwater-holding capacity of the air doubles with every 16 degrees rise in temperature. He suggests ' the equivalent to three inches of rock wool/bats on the ceiling and two inches of bats op the walls. "Birds piling up the litter can be a problem, Some people throw the litter in the pen; then they for- get about it. They shouldn't—es- pecially if the house has windows." "Hens like scratching in the light and the litter will often be shallow near the windows and maybe up to the top of the piti: You have to go in and redistribute litter over the floor; litter serves as floor insulation and prevents moisture condensation on bare floor boards," says Prof. Walker. Litter should be stirred; maybe as often as once a week, says the poultry specialist. "When the litter cakes you should get in there and stir it up." Some people throw in hydrated lime. Use one pound of lime to four square feet of floor space when the litter becomes moist. The lime then has both a chemicaf and physical action. "Ration is important too. If the birds aren't getting a well-balanc- ed 'diet they frequently will drink more water and the droppings will have a higher moisture content."
