    First time EVER hatching

    I have several that this happens to every hatching. Take some tweezers and very gently run it along the opening. After a while it does get dried out and feathers get stuck to membrane and they can't move enough to finish. I run tweezers around it to loosen and get everything unstuck. Few...

    Turkey with swollen face

    Good to know. No white feathers but Def no black spots so I guess he's the Lavender one. Highly dissapointed.

    Turkey with swollen face

    As soon as I get back home I will do that. I'm not going to be happy if the hatchery screwed me over. I did think it was odd the chicks came as grey and some were more yellow. This guy was one of the yellow ones. When I asked at the time I was told chick colors can vary but it was a Blue Slate ☹️

    Turkey with swollen face

    I do have tylan 50 inject. I know 200 would be better but store was out of that dosage. I know he needs 4ml a day and I know that is to much to give at one time for injection. Is 2ml twice a day sufficient or is 2ml still to much to do at one time? I have to get his weight to verify but I would...

    We just got them from hatchery this year and they are Blue Slates. Neighbor has blue slates as well and our boys look just like his. Both our boys look just like our Tom we had last year too

    Turkey with swollen face

    We are working thru that. Last year someone stole our Tom 3 days before Thanksgiving. So we need one as a backup. Right now they are ok and hen runs the pack. But if I see issues I have an area to separate them.

    Turkey with swollen face

    I have a 5 month old Blue Slate with swollen face on both sides. Other 2 turkeys are fine. This guy acts normal, runs around with other 2, eating and drinking fine. I'm not sure what face issue could be. We only have 1 other boy and a girl and they all get along. I have not seen any fighting so...

    Raw pigs feet question

    I've spoken to vets who say raw pork feet and ears are great for dogs gums, teeth and digestive system. Was told to be sure not to cook it because that will make bone soft and splinter which is very bad for dogs. I guess I will just call vet back and ask on proper process to prep it for raw...

    Raw pigs feet question

    Hello I received some fresh cut off the pig feet. I want to feed this to our dog but I'm not sure how to process them. I know you should not cook these as that makes bones unsafe for dogs. How do I prep these feet ... just wash and give to him? Should they be frozen for a time to kill bacteria...
