After listening to this, as well as reading the excerpt from Michael Phillips book in 'Acres, USA' magazine, I'm putting his book on my must-read list. Ordinarily nothing would get me to buy a new book, I always buy used. But I may have to make an exception in this case! This is a great interview.

I have 20+ years clinical experience in nutritional healing and Asian med theory. I am also very researched on thyroid problems and hypothyrodic myself. The entire brassica thyroid connection came from a study on rabbits and has very questionable scientific merit.

There is a sentence in \Chapter 7: Manure Management in the Poultry House: The Joys of Deep Litter that says, "(If you have an existing building with a wood or concrete floor to use for poultry housing....You can still use deep litter to keep the henhouse sweet, with a couple of tweaks noted below.)" pg 81. However, I cannot find anything that specifically talks about these "tweaks" that can be made to an existing solid floor henhouse (I have one and am very interested in hearing what ideas you have). I was thinking that you would probably start with a bit of actual soil on the solid floor, followed by several inches of straw/leaves. Do you have any advise for me and/or can you direct me to a place in the book where it is talked about? I could not find it. THANKS! Hello,
