Well if that is the case, I would call the pharmaceutical company first, because this is not what I was told.

Mu understanding is that the vaccine does not prevent Marek's it only prevents the manifestations of the disease. The vaccine is given at 1 day or into the egg just prior to hatching as the disease is not passed on through eggs. I am told virtually every chicken eventually develops some...

I know I have been gone a while but today I noticed what looked like small white worms when cleaning one of the coops. What is the general protocol on worming chickens?

Danz, I am sorry to hear about your mother. I have only been coming on from time to time. I just saw your post.

I agree.

Hey Hawkeye, I am just coming back on. Been a few weeks since I have read anything. I got sent to National Guard Bureau in Arlington with the guard the end of February early March and while I was there, our house in southeast Kansas got hit by a burst- 120 mile wind. Took off most of our roof in...

Verna, I am so sorry to hear about your parents, especially your mother. I can't thank you enough for the tour of all your animals. I don't know how you keep up. I will try to call you to make arrangements to pick up the chicken. I wouldn't mind both if you would sell or trade for the other. I...

When I had parrots, the vet told me to scald milk and put bread in it. I do not know what for, but it seemed to clear up the runs. I let it cool first of course...

I had a problem one time with a regular light socket and now only use ceramic sockets. Mine was on my euromastyx cage for two years and one day while I was home it started to burn. Now I always check a socket for maximum bulb wattage and use only ceramic sockets for heat. I think this is really...

Well just let me know. I have them out in the garage where it is cool. They should have a couple more in the next day or two. One of my geese is a smooth breasted, one is a lavendar, and the other two are white so the only colors as I understand it is white, smooth or curly, or lavendar ice.

Sorry, no pun toward you, I was just referring to difference between my first and second pregnancy. I was the same with my first eggs. Checking the book, looking for weight differences in evaporation so on so forth. You wouldn't believe my first hatch. A foster child who lived down the street...

Glad to hear everyone is doing well with this freezing weather. Yesterday I went outside and on the two little coops had to run a line and heat the doors with my hair dryer as they had frozen shut. I think I have been out basically to see if everyone has water and not ice. I haven't had any...

Hey Ivy nice photo of your husband with the dogs. They are beautiful. Hope they find out what is going on with your husband and get it fixed. Danz I sure am glad you finally made it to the doctor. It was sounding like you were already going into pneumonia. Not much on my end. Looked up the...

Ivy, I am so sorry to hear about your husband. Hope all goes well and keep us informed. Danz, Sorry to hear about your chicks. I had the same issue one year and it was so sad. I also now either use two separate bulbs in a larger box or go with the ceramic. I am glad to see you read the...

Wow, Shotah, what a neat idea for a greenhouse. I had drill this past weekend and madly trying to catch up. This site really goes to town over the weekend. Still have not heard anything from K State. I will probably call later this week if I haven't heard from them. I did look up the tracking on...

Wow, your coop is awesome! What do you do in your spare time? Build houses? Today has been a bad day for me. My cousin died this morning, my aunt in hospice could not get out of bed for the first time, and I lost my little white serama hen. She stopped laying eggs about five days ago and...

Jeff. No he is the only one. I got rid of the other one and was trying to get rid of this guy last night. Funny I just read your post. I do not know what kind. I ordered eggs last year from a breeder and they were two of each breed they raised. They were mailed on one of those 120 degree days...

Jeff, if you want a rooster that is ready to go, I have one that I hatched out last summer. I am attaching a photo. Living in town he has got to go. I am about 30 miles from you in Pittsburg. Sherol-that metal rooster is made from 50 gal drum barrels. I was driving from El Dorado and some craft...

Wow I love your greenhouse. Was it a kit? It's green and I am green. Hi Jeff where in SE Kansas are you from?
