    Salmon Favorelle Breeders in the Midwest?

    Great, thanks for the info! I will need around 12 chicks no sooner than March. I'd be up for a road trip too if possible. I really want standard breed for the larger eggs. How do I get in touch with Duane Urch?

    I'm considering Sandhill for Salmon Favorelles. Anyone have experience with their quality?

    Salmon Favorelle Breeders in the Midwest?

    Thank you so much for the leads. I will check them all out! Do you recommend one over the other? Since I don't need the chicks until Spring, I'm hoping I'll be high on the list. I have the feeling that I will go through a breeder over a hatchery. Guess I'll just have to hope for a high pullet...

    Hi all! I would love to get a bunch of Salmon Favorelles this coming Spring. I'm close to Sandhill Preservation but unsure of their quality and a little concerned about getting straight run. Has anyone gotten Salmon Favorelles from them? Or does anyone know of someone who breeds them? In a...

    Thank you for the offer! As tempting as it is, I think it's best for me to wait until Spring or after. :-( Oh, and I am looking for the standard breed too. Thanks though!

    Faverolles Thread

    I was hoping that someone on this thread would be able to lead me in the right direction. I would like a flock of Salmon Favorelles. These would be just for my personal flock. I appreciate the quality from breeders and would prefer these over hatchery stock. But, I may not have much for options...

    lice!!!

    I used coconut oil on my chickens this Spring and was so happy and shocked with how well it worked! I treated twice and haven't seen lice since. Yippee! The only draw back was that my chickens have had bare butts ever since. It's almost like they liked the taste of the coconut oil so they ate...

    Gross - white worms!

    I doubled checked again and see NO lice. Thank goodness. Ok, I get it. I will treat the entire flock with the paste. Will the paste get rid of both types of worms I have or should I treat with more than one wormer?

    Gross - white worms!

    Well, I just went to check on the chickens and noticed some different worms in the poop!! Ewwwww! These were hair like, almost clear, short and flopping around. I feel sick. What next?!

    Gross - white worms!

    Thanks for the info! I plan to buy the paste and hopefully figure out which chickens have tapeworms. Funny how they always poop until you are waiting and watching for it! Does it make sense to only treat the ones that have tapeworms? My chickens are 8 months and I've never done a general wormer...

    Gross - white worms!

    Thank you to everyone for your help! Here's a picture. You can see 3 of the worms. They don't look like a sesame which is what I've seen tape worms described as. They have sort of a hammer head or bulb shaped head. Yuck! I know they are hard to see in the picture. If I see a better sample...

    Gross - white worms!

    Yuck. I noticed some solid white worms in fresh chicken poo today. They are very small, very white and seemed to have a round head and slightly thinner body. Lots of them. Moving around. Gross. By the time I got my camera to take a picture, they were all dead and kind of shriveled. I...

    sulfur powder against lice/mites?

    I could only find aluminum sulfur at a local garden center. It's not dust, but more of a granular. Does anyone know if this would be safe to add the the chicken's dust bath? I think it's 90% sulfur.
