    Safe-guard wormer dosage?

    Did you find the dosage info you were looking for. By the way, do you feel sure they are in need of worming medication?

    Problems Incubating Chukar Eggs

    The particular environment in which the incubator is located can play a part as well. You'll need to continue experimenting until you find what works best for you.

    Yes that should work, won't be as nice to look through but should do the job for you.

    Yellow Golden Pheasant or not?

    Would tend to agree with Tony, but is it possible to get a picture that's a little closer up?

    sick chick
