Free 4 month old lavender Guinea rooster! Located in Navasota, Tx. Cannot ship.

Aren't MG infected birds carriers for life also? And if that's the case wouldn't it be better to cull this chick?

My flock is a closed flock, no other chickens are introduced into it. My flock is where it is now because I hatch my own eggs..No one else who has chickens has been in my yard either so Im not sure where this came from if it's MG..Can't they get it from wild birds?

My Silkie hen hatched this chick, the original egg came from one of my EEs. I had a fowl pox outbreak about 2 months ago(before these chicks hatched) It ran it's course and my flock is healthy now. There's no nasal discharge and no raspy breathing.

It showed up literally overnight like fowl pox would do. I've mixed Rooster Booster Vitamins & Electrolytes, and the Sav A Chick supplements in it's water. I don't have any antibiotics and my TSC doesn't carry anything stronger then these supplements and I don't have any vets around me that...

This pullet is about a month old and is one of 6 chicks. The others and momma are perfectly healthy, this is the only one with an eye like this (this is only in the right eye). There's no bad smell or puss, just bubbly discharge. She's eating, drinking, and moving around great and acts like she...

This is what I do for mine

I'm loving them! Their literally walking cotton balls!

All 4 hatched! 3 silkie x EE crosses and 1 cochin x EE cross! The solid yellow chick in the middle of the 4th photo was rejected by one of my hens this morning so I have it with the other chicks. One proud momma here!

First of the 6 chicks hatched last night. It died not even 10 minutes after hatching out. This is the first of the other 5 that hatched without a problem! The other 4 have all piped!

The chicks would be shipped out a day old at most, preferably earlier then that. You don't need to be NPIP certified to ship in you're own state though right? Just if you're shipping out of state?
