So, the vaccine works on birds already showing symptoms, or only on birds not yet affected by pox? Also, will supportive therapy with VetRx help until recovery? THANKS!
Which duck breeds are best? Are there quiet breeds? I had to give up a pet mallard once because he cried for me all day while I was at work and the neighbors complained.

The one in the crate (Gizmo) - as much as I adore him (and he's terrific with humans of all ages and other dogs) - is absolutely NOT trustworthy with small animals. He has been the end of many an escaped hamster, for instance. So I do NOT allow him out of his crate when the chickens are out...

I am wondering the same thing - is there any way to at least make the crow SOFTER? Maybe not remove the voice box completely, just remove some of its 'umph'. I am concerned because there is less and less land available so who will get to keep the roos, just factory farms? There must be some...

Beg to differ?
If you think...

Let's hear him!

It is terrible to have to give up the roos - Sorry you have to go through that - Great looking chicken housing, though! Are there more photos of it online anywhere?
Hi everyone, I ended up with an extra roo or two from my recent hatch - they hatched within a day or two of Good Friday - if anyone is interested, I will be rehoming at least one of my LF salmon favs cockerels - drop me a line if interested and I can deliver if you live near me - ($10) (Atlanta...
