Also as a cheaper option to the peat try coconut coir mix it with diatomaceous earth and clay soil as it's the most common. The coir is high in salt so it absorbs the oils and it's sustainable the diatomaceous earth is abrasive and like mites and other parasite while the clay adds stability to the mix it's also absorbent and abrasive.

We're actually not eating our pets (chickens included). Each one has its own job or multiple. Horse n pony keep the lawn cut down. Cat kills rodents (in house during cold months n he moves himself to our storage trailer during warmer months.. he has a way out. We let him back in when we go in. Lol) Chickens eat the ticks n whatever other bugs. Dog helps keep most ground predators away when she's outside.
