hello I am from texas and i am not trying to forum still or nothing but if i may I have two questions .question 1. I was wondering where do i go or what do i do to get the testing done? , the vets around here have no clue about chickens and last time i took one in the practacly passed out and the nurses kept laughing at me the other vet sent me to the one that laughed and the doc almost passed out it is frustrating I almost lost my whole flock to a cold a lil med tea cured , thanks to ppl on here they are all happy and healthy now . but no thanks to any vet . we have three vets here and none have a clue about chickens two wont even see them . this was my first few chickens and i didnt know what to do they were sickly when i got em i think i got duped cause i didnt know at the time , now i do. second question. i am wondering if they is something worse wrong with them because now they arent sick they eat good i wormed em and wormed em again they are free ranged most the time but they are all kinda skinny their hind ends are big and fat but their breast are boney i have only had em for 3 1/2 months i am wondering because they were so skinny when i got em if it is just gonna take time for them to fill in exspeacially now that it is so hot ? I also read laying hens are kind skinny ? but any ways thanks for all the info
