Like Sally said you can do Acv in the water or save a chick electrolytes. Some just seem to get it no matter what you do if they have a certain rear end angle. i had 2 in the spring that I just ended up trimming some of the tushie fuzz and keeping the area cleaned 2-3 X a day. It will go away in just a few days :)

For AKC? The owner can certainly handle the dog. From the AKC: The initial test is called Instinct Test and it is a test for herding breeds, Rottweilers, Samoyeds, Standard and Giant Schnauzers, Pyrenean Shepherds, Swedish Vallhunds, Norwegian Buhunds and Greater Swiss Mountain Dogs. The dog needs no training before entering this class and [COLOR=0000FF]may be handled by the judge, owner or a designated handler [/COLOR]. The judge is looking for the dogs ability to move and control livestock by fetching or driving.

We test almost nothing in AKC so I couldn't tell you what their rules are. That's good to know, thank you. My wife has done AKC Herding and said they actually prefer you to be in there during testing. I guess I should have been a little more clear in my post and have also edited the post that this was not AKC testing.

I wanted to show you what I use for my chicks because of the serama and their "lifted butt" they have a better tendency to get pasty butt the first few days of life.

I use grow gel, sometimes I even put it in the bator as the first several hatch,because the eggs can be of all sizes some tend to hatch hours earlier than others, and I like to keep as many chicks in the bator as I can to get them all to hatch as quickly and get it over and done with, so they get hungry and the grow gel gives them a great start in life and helps give them something to do, but I put marbles in it so they dont get stuck in it of course! I make enough to make about a teaspoon or two when it has water in it, then let them finish it up in the brooder. I add this pro vits to the waterer.......


Anyways this is what they get in their waterer...... I know it doesnt look like a lot is in there, but it goes a long way in chick waterers and I only give it the first two weeks and then I add AVC into their water WELL worth the money, and they grow and feather faster! I swear by this stuff!! I never loose chicks in the brooder! but mind you I DO NOT ASSIST CHICK HATCHING EITHER!!! BECAUSE WE SELL CHICKS!
