Anyone have a few chicks including near Ocala FL? Price, age, location? Mixed breed welcome. For a 5 year old girl who didn’t cry all week in school!
Thanks!
My show chickens used to be sent in an authorized approved box, deemed healthy by some vet then the USPS won’t ship them bc they subcontracted it out to fedex.
Is this still the case? Can you demonstrate this to be true? I need help bc I’m getting pummeled by nonbelievers! Lol
A Muscovy drake and two hens wandered onto my property today. :celebrate I want them to stay. I put chicken pellets, black oil sunflower seed and dried worms out. The hens ran away but the drake wagged his tail at me. Is that friendly? It seemed friendly. I have 4 acres very private, some thick...
I want to give a big thumbs up for the pullet-shut chicken door company. I’ve had my door for 4 years and it works great. I had to disconnect it for a bit bc of a neighbors dog. When I plugged it back in I mistakenly connected the cold wire to the hot. Big mistake on my part! When I called...

Sorry about you hen. It’s good to hear that I’m doing the right thing by not using blu-kote. It’s a good product just not for this. Now if I can keep bugs off him and keep him alive we will be set.
Thank-you Sublight! I do think he is a hero! Chickens aren’t chicken lol.
And thank-you Eggcessive! It’s great to know about other most cost effective products to use. I’m running low on novasan.
I clean the wound everyday. When I flushed it, a few minuscule pieces of white fat came out. Today...
That bone is “dead”. If you are able to remove that bone at the joint quickly, cleanly and not leave any jagged bone bits under her skin do it. Otherwise she will die slowly from infections. The vet has a way to raster the live bone so it isn’t sharp. Then close the skin. It’s a very tough...
I am not sure but I think it was a raccoon. I feel that his wattles and comb were bitten bc my rooster tried to fight the raccoon. But this is a pure guess.
Blue-kote would be easier. I put it on his comb and wattles after I cleaned them up. But I seriously it is not recommended for deep wounds. Don’t believe me look it up!
That’s my worry pirate girl. It was too wet now too dry. If I treat him with honey I will put gauze on it and try to keep bugs off the wound. Sorry about your dog, hope he is better!
Hi first some background info. I have a rooster that’s two years old almost. He was attacked 8 days ago. His comb was bitten off, the ends of his wattles bitten and the worst wound is a hole on his upper back/lower neck that’s around 1 inch wide and almost two inches long. His skin is lose...
