It's well worth checking prices as well; I find the Omlet site very informative and interesting but they are definitely a bit on the pricey side - for the 'basics' like DE and other poultry products the less pretty the website the better the price in my experience
Bokashi added to the food is supposed to help stop the poo smelling, though I think Aunty (aka Font of All Knowledge
) uses garlic powder for the same purpose.
Just one note on the Diatom - I use it and like the fact that it is a non chemical approach to mite control, but there is a warning on it that it shouldn't be used by asthmatics; I'm not asthmatic but when I'm cleaning out the hen house I do damp it down first, because the stuff goes up in clouds and can make your throat very unpleasantly dry ...
