    Fermented Feed Maintenance

    I'm having the same problem. I'm using nesting buckets, and the inside of the larger bucket and the outside of the inner bucket developed mold. I trashed it and will start over. I'm thinking I will need to change buckets every week or so.

    Valbazen for Week Old Chicks?

    Thanks, math ace. I'm feeling the same way. 2 of the chicks are off to a rocky start anyway, and are a bit fragile. One has a lame leg and the other had his back pecked open when he was 2 days old. They're doing surprisingly well though.

    Valbazen for Week Old Chicks?

    So I just treated my adults with 1/2 cc Valbazen because I saw worms in the poop of one of them. Roundworms, I think. Anyway, I have babies out there who are a week old, and they're with mama who was also treated. Should I treat the babies? Or should I just wait until I actually see worms in...

    I am trying to find a home for my 6 month old Lavender Ameraucana cockerel. He's beautiful, but he does have a single comb. He isnt aggressive, but neither is he friendly. He's more afraid of people if anything. He looks like he'll be a good roo. Gentlemanly to the girls. I hate to get rid of...

    Allison, I'm do sorry about your girl. I worry about the heat too, especially when the girls are laying, sitting in a virtual oven for an hour or more. I set up a fan for the coop today. Outside, they have a mister, a wading pool and frozen watermelon a couple times a day. I hope it's enough...

    It's so exciting, isn't it? I went through the broody thing last year for the first time. I was in complete awe through the whole process. Can't wait to see the babies.

    Super cute. When I moved to Fallbrook last year, a weasel came near me as I was chilling with the chickens. I didn't know what it was at the time and exclaimed, "What on Earth are YOU!?" It promptly ran away.
