    Review by 'Agi' in article 'Frostbite in SW Michigan'

    This article helped me understand what happens with frostbite, how the healing progresses and how to go about it mentally. Because we always want to help and do something but sometimes is just better to leave it alone and let time heal.

    Doktor Doom application on chickens?

    Hi all, Can anyone specify how they apply Doktor Doom on their chickens? It says to mist the chicken, but do we have to cover their eyes? How long do you spray for? I’m also worried that they will ingest the product when they preen. Thank you!!

    A Pretend-Egg-Laying Chicken ~ Unusual?

    Hey old thread rejuvenation! I have the same issue, a 1 year old star rousse egg laying pretender. Or maybe the eggs are just invisible haha. Hopefully something will happen this spring but for now I feel bad for her obsessive fake laying, even making a little nest with wood shavings. She’s...
