Yay!

Whew!

Yay! I hope you're right. We keep going back and forth with it!

Rose our EE is 17 weeks old. I'm not quite sure if she's a hen or rooster. Any thoughts? [/IMG][/IMG]

hey I have another quick question I started the girls on antibiotic in their water how long should i do that for and how long do we not eat their eggs after we stop the antibiotics?

Guys, guess what? Mary was up fairly early this morning. She was very noisy and making lots of sounds, some sounded like she was crying and she was pacing alot. She ended up tipping over her water, AGAIN! (ugh) So, I was trying to clean around her, and she tried to keep getting out. She...

So far, I've been putting the blue kote on their wounds and neosporin for the last two days. I have them in my dining room. They are both eating and pooping- a lot. Mary has quit laying, but I figured that's pretty normal, right? However, the last two days they have been making lots of...

I'm so happy to hear this. All five of my hens were attached last night by a neighbor's dog, two of them were killed, and two are badly injured. I'm curious, did you give your Eggster any antibiotics? I flushed their wounds with diluted peroxide and I sprayed them with the blue kote. I also...

Can I get the antibiotic from tractor supply, or do I need to take her (them) to the vet? They both have a puncture wound.
