FAQs

First thing you should consider, rodents love chicken coops because it is a smorgasbord of easy food. Buff Clucks Herb Supplement added to chicken feed helps keep mice and rats away because rodents can taste the "spiciness" of red pepper flakes and they haaaaate it. Suddenly the free food they’ve been swiping is no good. Chickens can’t detect “heat” in food so they get all the health benefits of red pepper flakes and don’t taste a thing. Mixing Buff Clucks into the feed and sprinkling it around the coop creates an environment that rodents find unappealing, and they’ll go find a new coop to steal feed from!

For extra protection, try our CoopShield Diatomaceous Earth and Herb Blend to keep your coop pest-free.

Buff Clucks helps prevent mites, lice, and fleas through the inclusion of red pepper flakes and garlic. These ingredients make your flock taste gross to blood-sucking parasites.

Red pepper flakes contain capsaicin, which not only boosts the chickens' immune systems but also changes the taste of their blood. Parasites like mites, lice, and fleas find the altered taste nasty, prompting them to leave in search of a more suitable host.

Garlic has natural sulfur compounds that are secreted through the chickens' skin and feathers. These compounds act as a natural repellent, deterring parasites from latching on to the chickens.

Isn’t Mother Nature’s medicine cabinet amazing?!

Thanks for your question! Once opened, Buff Clucks Herb Supplement should last up to 6 months if stored in a cool, dry place. Make sure to keep the bag sealed to maintain freshness and effectiveness.
