Well, at least I'm not the only one :-( I got 14 babies who did great for 2 nights & now they're dropping off steadily. I spent hours with them yesterday making them drink & eat & this morning their are 5 remaining. :-( I just told my daughter it must be genetic & not to count on the rest...
...Now, 5 hrs later, and with finalizing my divorce last week I have decided its time for birds again! (And for some crazy reason I added bunnies? ***?Lol!)

HTH!

Lost everything except 3 rouens due to Ike and want to start up again. Curious if any1 w/in an hr of 77630 (Orange) has anything. Chickens and muscovy are my current search.
