    Alfalfa Horse Pellets

    I was giving them Power 99 as that was what was suggested to me when I first started with a hobby two years ago. Later I found out that what I was giving them was actually chicken scratch as their main feed for almost a year! I didn't know the harm I was doing to them! Then, I switched over to...

    Alfalfa Horse Pellets

    Alfalfa Horse Pellets

    Feeding eggs to chickens on antibiotics.

    I purchased it at a local feed store. I know it had doxycycline and 3 other antibiotics. It was recommended. It turned the water like malachite green. On the instructions, it did state to not use the eggs laid until 6 days after I've stopped treating. I'm suppose to leave the water with them for...

    Feeding eggs to chickens on antibiotics.

    So, I'm treating two quarantined egg-laying hens with antibiotics in their water for three days for a respiratory infection. As per the antibiotics, we are not to eat their eggs until after 6 days of discontinuing the antibiotics. Can I feed these eggs back to the chickens or should I discard...
