Ok. So starting off … I’ve never done this before. This will be my first time placing fertilized eggs under a broody hen. Tuesday evening I purchased 15 fertile eggs and put 10 of them under a broody hen that night. Today (Friday- 3 days later) when I came home from lunch I notice another hen in...
Worried about my two favorite “pullets” one definitely showing sign she might be a he! I cannot have a roo in the city limits.... both came from a lady stating they were hatched from dark brown eggs. Neither look like Maran per say (to me)... but assume a mix that would be Oliver egger or sort...
Thank you sooo much! I will follow that! I’ll dose them late afternoon then just before the head in for the night I’ll offer a small amount of food. Can I then put the buckets back in the run so they can free feed the following morning?
Yes that’s it EXACTLY. I guess wiggle is the wrong word. But yes. That’s definitely it. I just took away their feed. Should I wait a full 24 hours to dose them , or can I just do it anytime tomorrow? How important is the 24 hour no feed thing?
Yes thank you. I’ve been cleaning the run of droppings 2-3 times a day. I clean the coop of droppings every morning, and will change the litter in the coop out completely tomorrow morning. Thank you all so much.
Ok. Sorry if I’m slow, but their second dose of Valbazen was just given on the 12th of Sept. is there concern that there will be more after 2 rounds of that and Equimax? I just want to get this right. Thank you....
