    Necropsy results, is not coryza or CRD--parasites are rampant!!!

    o.k. i have never wormed my flock. the oldest of them are two years old, the youngest are two months. i have about 30 birds. what do i buy, and how do i administer?

    Anyone let their Silkies free range with the flock?

    i only have one silkie, a roo. he runs the yard with the rest of my mixed flock. my big roo , a speckled sussex runs from him. he has no game and can't dance well enough for my gals. he goes in the hen house at night with the rest of the flock.
