    Golden sexlink thread!

    Ohhhhhh. My bad. I've never seen those before. Never even HEARD or them, actually. Well, I guess you learn something new everyday! ;P Are they basically the same thing as Golden Comets/Red Sexlinks?

    Salmonella Outbreak--- Mt. Healthy Hatchery!!! Help!

    Ok. Weeellll, I'm pretty sure that a licensed veterinarian USUALLY knows what she's talking about... I will just chose not to worry, at this point. Whatever you want to do, well, that's what you want to do. Though I am still concerned, i'm just gonna take that risk and see what happens...

    Salmonella Outbreak--- Mt. Healthy Hatchery!!! Help!

    I've talked to my Cooperative Extension and 4-H, and they don't seem too concerned... For all anyone knows, your current flocks could be infected w/ some strain and you don't even know it. And, apparently, if it was really proven and a huge issue, they would not be permitted to sell chicks. I...

    Good luck! I didn't even think of the pellet gun, but I actually think that that's the best idea for you.... Just kinda keeping yourself at a distance.... ya know?

    Baby Crow!???!??? Please Help!

    UPDATE; Ok, I have fed her 2 egg yolks mixed with a bit of Coca-Cola (don't ask- saw it on Yahoo! LOL.), and some Duramycin. She did not accept it readily, so I had to gently pry open her beak. I think I got a little more than half a teaspoon in her. She's still poopin, so I assume she has...

    Baby Crow!???!??? Please Help!

    Ok. Thank you so much for not judging me. I am not allowed to tell you about my situation (mods will kill me (but it's nothing bad)), but there is no way for me to get to a rehab center. That would be my first choice also.

    How to euthanize a chick?

    Wow. I guess that's one way to do it. (i'm totally NOT judging you, btw) I will remember that, but closing a little animal in a container seems like it would be more traumatizing (for me) than just killing it as you would a bird to be eaten... Just my opinion. Do you really think that it's less...

    How to euthanize a chick?

    Yup. That's how the people do it at my feed store. It's probably the easiest/most readily available option. Sorry.

    Baby Crow!???!??? Please Help!

    So, I know that some of you people will probably say "HEY! YOU POSTED THIS IN THE WRONG SECTION!" But this IS an emergency, and I don't think that I will get as many answers if I post it somewhere else. ALSO- please don't judge me. I have encountered a lot of this on here, and after today, I...
