    sneezing,swollen eyes, fowl smell

    I wouldn't keep her inside. Her infection could rub off on you through the day and you cul infect the rest of you flock... Right?

    I don't want to cull all my birds! I stay out for a few mins a few times a night to check for sneezing and running noses. And cull them if it looks like they do... I also keep an eye on them all day to make sure they are active. If I havnt use any antibiotics would the birds be good to eat?

    Coop is where they all breath together so I'd say day or two apart of four cleanings would kill a lot! I'm trying that nowIll keep everyone updated on how things turn out

    So when it comes to the rest of the chickens. If they show any small indication of the sickness would it be a smart move to separate until culled and keep it up until no one has problems?

    Crossing Malines with Barred Rocks

    Talk about cross breeding!!! Lol I say of both breeds lay good and both breeds are 4-5lbs at 4-5 months... Go for it. The hens can lay for you and the Roos can go to the slaughter and you can process all the roosters at once or week by week... Starting at month 3.5 and until the have enough meat...

    I have no idea I'm bleaching everything once they get out in the morning and I'll be closing the coop up for the day

    This time it was pretty sad... Not counting the money... Just the amount of chickens I had too cull was horrible. Southeast GA

    From what I'm told it's airborne... It's hard to think all my pretty Barred Rocks and my gorgeous too slept by them for two nights... Lord know what's going to happen now...

    Broken beak - need vet care?

    A few people trim beaks on hens to keep them from pecking each other so badly. And they make it just fine over though they look much worse, 90% of the time then that beautiful rooster of yours... No worries I say if it has cracked up the beak put some superglue or 2 part apoxy on it and may him...

    Out of 25 I just had to cull 16 of my RIWs Saturday... They couldn't breath and I could not risk it spreading any more. The rest are isolated until I can get it under control but is their waste or feathers possibly infected with it too? Should I bleach the ground and laying boxes. They were new...
