    Runny nose??

    Tylan 50 100ml $16.99 plus tax ($18.51 in CA) It sounds like too much money for a $6 bird but it'll last a while for just one bird in case he/she contracts the virus again (very likely). Inject 1/2 ml on one side of the stomach & 1/2 through the mouth once a day. Repeat cycle for 3-5 days...

    Broody Chicken up for too long?

    Hello thank you for your response and thankfully all of them hatched. They are about 6-7 months old right now and they are all doing great.

    Is Ideal Hatchery a good hatchery?

    Thank you very much for the information. I guess I'll wait on cackle hatchery just to be sure on their health. I'll look into Belt since they are closer to me and shipping might not be too expensive.

    Is Ideal Hatchery a good hatchery?

    SKIP TWO PARAGRAPHS FOR MAIN QUESTIONS. Late May I ordered 50 Easter egger Pullets and received 51. I managed to save 40 of them since the first 11 died of pasty butts but now I obviously know what to do the first 2 weeks of life. I sold 35 pullets and 5 males at 3months and 4months age. (Just...

    Turkey Starter on Baby chicks?

    Thanks for the advice. I'm going to try it one a few. Have about 30 chicks going to hatch this week so I'm gonna test it on them. Thank you.

    Turkey Starter on Baby chicks?

    I understand. I was thinking of just feeding it to the stags. Usually at around 3 weeks of age, you can tell which ones are males and which are females. I could care less about the pullets because they look like mini hens at ages 4-5 months. The gamefowl world is very different than the egg...

    Turkey Starter on Baby chicks?

    I raise gamefowl. I have read the effects on pullets (laying problems and stuff like that). I was wondering if turkey starter has any effect over a long period of time? Or is there a way to properly feed them turkey starter without getting problems? Like maybe feed them turkey starter for the...

    Wazine 17 and Wazine 34 difference?

    It okay and I ended up getting Wazine 34 and applied half an ounce for a gallon where there aren't too many chicks in a group. Is it okay this way?

    What vaccines do I need?

    Than Thank you I will look into that. I did not know the vaccines hatcheries had were way better. Do you know of any online store that has the best vaccine? And I really can't start over with my flock because my birds are very expensive.

    What vaccines do I need?

    I will be expanding my flock. I'm talking two-three hundred roosters and chickens next year. This year was horrible. I hatched about 100 birds and have about 70 left. The 30 that died mainly died of lack of food, since I left them about 30 a group (probably should've put 15 per group). About...

    Wazine 17 and Wazine 34 difference?

    Thank you both. I understand it now. I have bred over 200 chicks this year. I am going to get the Wazine 34 gallon. What do you guys think?

    Wazine 17 and Wazine 34 difference?

    What's the difference between the two? I own chickens that average 5 pounds as adults and about 1 1/2 - 2 pounds at 2-3 months of age. What do you recommend? Thanks

    Cackle Hatchery Experiences?

    Oh nice. I breed the Bruner Roundhead line too. They come out looking very nice

    Cackle Hatchery Experiences?

    I've had bad luck with this one. I ordered 50, received 51 and have 45 left. 5 chicks arrived unhealthy so they will refund me 4 of those (1 was extra) and the other one died because it got out the brooder. Hopefully these make it though.
