I do sell, but only to a few people so that's not a big issue- I just won't have any available for sale. I do donate dozens each month to a food bank, which is a bigger concern for me. I assume I should just not donate and toss the eggs for a couple months then I would be ok?
I had some chick's with a seemingly resistant strain of coccidiosis. After 3 rounds of corid they were still ill. I ordered endo-cox powder and gave it at 1 tsp per gallon of water. I was worried I had cross contaminated my entire flock, so I treated my 1 and 2 year old gals as well. I then...

Palm Coast is north of Daytona Beach, just below St. Augustine :) And I'll still be on BYC, because I am GOING to have my chickens up there. I'm not able to take them because we may rent for a bit til our house here sells, and I don't want to have to worry about getting them a place built and...
