Hi everyone,
First of all we had a chicken around a year ago that was acting strange. We did a lot of research and was able to weed out things that couldn't be the problem. Someone at Southern states told my sister in law to give us wazine for our flock, and to withhold eggs for 14 days. We held them for about 20 to be sure.
Well that 20th day is when I went ahead and googled to be sure... that's when I read that we could no longer eat the eggs, ever.. I wish I would've googled it before giving them the dosage, but figured it was advice from someone that works in Farm supplies so I didn't think much of it.
So my first question is... Anyone still eat their "wazine eggs"? And does anyone know why you can't/shouldn't? We've been giving some eggs back to the original flock/wazine flock, an egg every now and then mixed in the dogs food, and leaving the rest out for crows.
Like I said it's been about a year, actually longer than a year now, I believe... oh and it didn't help the sick chicken, she ended up dying. Then the one that was the same breed (bought same time and place) died about a month later. We think it must have been some genetic problem with the production reds..
Also is it possible for the wazine chickens eggs to hatch? I read up on here after the wazine incident and someone just stated "don't hatch them" so wondering if it's possible and if so, is there anything we should be concerned about with hatching wazine eggs...? Only curious because we have one hen from our original flock that has been broody for a couple months now.
Thank you so much for any advice or answers!
