Dirt On My Plate 
Question – do you use any essential oil in combating avian flu in your flock? I have about 25 chickens, planned to purchase six runner ducks and was told (by a lady with 50,000 chickens) not to mix ducks with chickens since they carry the virus.

As a matter of fact I do use essential oils with my birds! Throughout the winter I used 1 drop of Young Living Oregano essential oil (a natural antibacterial and antiviral) per every 4-5 gallons of water I take out to the chickens and ducks. I’ve also used VetRx Poultry, a few drops per the 4-5 gallons to help keep away any respiratory ailments. I’ve had no issues with my ducks and chickens mixed within the coop, they were raised together. I’ve heard many other folks raise them together with no issues. I suppose it depends on how clean you keep their living environment. All my birds free range during the day and stay in the same coop at night. If you have issues with them together (picking on each other) you may have to make a separate duck house. I would be most worried about non domesticated birds introducing avian flu. It’s always a good practice to introduce healthy birds to your flock…just know where they come from. Runners won’t fly off to foreign bodies of water to be exposed to any wild carriers of the disease – so that’s a plus. I wish you luck!

The basil vitality essential oil sounds intriguing to try in many of the dishes that I make. I would especially be interested in seeing how it performs in a marinade.

I love the Bergamot Vitality. I keep it in my purse and either use it as a perfume or for a quick pick me up.
