    Questions about having parrots and getting chickens

    Your concerns would logically be legitimate. We have a Yellow Nape Parrot (Michael) that my wife has had for around 25 years. We roll his large cage out on the porch almost every day. Some of our chickens come and hang out with him. He has been in regular contact with the chickens for over 2...

    Cut unabsorbed yolk sac?

    Do NOT cut the yolk sack. If the chick lives, the yolk in the sack will be absorbed. Never help a chick out of the shell for this reason! Good Luck!

    How much to dose? Wazine 17 for worms

    I dont think that TSC carries Valbazen but they do have SafeGuard for goats. I like the liquid but the paste works fine. Yes, I thinlk it would be a good idea to give them another round when they recover from the Wazine in 10 days. Wazine only kills roundworms. I highly recommend dosing your...

    How much to dose? Wazine 17 for worms

    Wazine acts like a flush and if there's a heavy load of large roundworms, a blockage can occur causing toxic dead worm overload. Then there's a good chance the chicken will get sick and die. Valbazen or SafeGuard slowly kills worms over several days eliminating the possibility of blockage and...

    How much to dose? Wazine 17 for worms

    This is your 2 best wormer options: Valbazen With Valbazen (albendazole) I would use .2ml per 2.2 pounds once by mouth and repeat in ten days. A Rhode Island Red hen would get .6ml A Rhode Island Red rooster would get .8ml You may or may not see worms excreted in feces after worming. Most...

    Please Help

    This is just a thought. You may want to feel her crop to see if it is impacted. If it is large and not squishy that could be the cause. When my rooster had impacted crop, he tried to eat and drink but he was wasting away, starving because no food was getting past the crop. If you believe this is...

    opinions on diatomaceous earth?

    I agree with Kathy and Enola from personal experience and I have tried DE with no noticeable results. However, I did get great results from Valbazen and from SafeGuard wormer. Good Luck using DE! If you start experiencing high mortality rates, you may need to try something other than DE. For me...

    Anybody setting eggs this weekend? (4-25-15)

    Thank you!!! I love the Legbars but we had bad luck with a few. We lost 2 roosters and 2 hens over the first 8 months. I am not sure but it may have been mareks. So now I have 2 Legbar hens left. I bred them with a Black, Double tufted, Rumpless Araucana Rooster. He is a beauty but he is mean to...
