    Hi all. I know a science teacher in Pullman looking for fertile eggs for an incubating project. She has little to no budget for eggs, however. If you know of anyone, or can help, please let me know and I'll put you in contact with her. Thank you

    I've made a donation to Apple Valley Red Cross. I have room for some small animals/birds, but am probably too far away (Whitman County) for that to be helpful.

    I was thinking about the Carlton Complex fire which is still zero percent contained and growing. I'm in Whitman County, so not super close. But am open to ideas to help. Already donated to Red Cross.

    Do we know if we have any members directly affected by the fires? Is there support or assistance that is needed?

    I give mine treats of frozen fruit, in addition to pans of cool water to wade in (they won't generally get into high-walled things like kiddie pools).

    Yeah, I was pretty certain. I'm sorry it's not going so great for you. I don't know that I did anything special; just what I read here after doing a ton of research. But you have so much more experience than me that I don't think I could help you out, anyway . I hope things improve!!

    I got them from someone in Cheney. They are Bev Davis lines, but so far back that it's probably not that relevant at this point. And I'm not really sure of standard, as that wasn't my focus (I don't breed). But 3 of the 4 have feathered legs, and one of the probable pullets has some white on...

    The move from brooder to grow-out coop to the "big run" has gone very smoothly so far for my 4 BCM chicks that just turned 8 weeks. Yeah!! They were 2 weeks old when I got them, so brooder time seemed very short compared to starting with day-olds. They spent a couple of weeks in...

    No pictures in any of the links in the post, but here is document with more comprehensive info. http://www.vetmed.wsu.edu/depts_waddl/announcements/InfectiousBursalDisease.pdf Also, note that this is infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) rather than "classic" infectious bursal disease.
