    Swollen side of face, Cyst Surgery

    We have only cut one bird open to get the pus out and it was the wild turkey that adopted us. We, and the bird, did ok, not much blood and he healed up fine, but it was too traumatic for me. When the chickens and then the peas came down with the swollen face because of the pus in the sinuses I...

    Well, the dogs have been found. They had roamed at least 8 miles away. This morning a neighbor, 1 1/2 miles away called and said they were on their porch. I was in the middle of feeding the birds (all of them) as KsKingBee is down with a bad back, so we didn't leave right away. By the time we...

    Back from Gardner and got the new birds settled in. Only had a couple of mishaps, a broken egg in a nest box and a loose brooder chick in the house. FrizzledPink can't believe that we didn't get to meet. I bought the big parrot cage and Danz was sitting there with me so we must have been in the...

    I had started on a reply last night and then "poof" it was gone so I went to bed. Loved the weather yesterday, we got the three coops cleaned out and I got 2 of them disinfected. Now we can can move the breeders around, which is really just the exhibition Orps. The BLRW aren't quite old enough...

    I am sitting here getting caught up on posts and KKB says, "do I have 4 egg turners or just 3"? "I don't know", I answered, "I never had one". "Well, I think I have another one somewhere, I'll go look." "For why?", I ask, "when are you going to stop hatching chicks?" His answer, "when the hens...

    Danz, sorry about your rooster, I can understand your tears and frustration. I hope you can find a replacement for him. We lost the turkey this morning, it's like she just gave up. So now we have 1 blind pullet, 1 pullet with a messed up leg and the pullet with the prolapse in the infirmary...

    Ralph you are right - March in like a lion and out like a lamb. I'm gonna think all positive thoughts about that. That's a neat tool you came up with to collect the hidden eggs. How easy is it to find the hidden nests? I'm worried about finding the guinea nests. One of the guineas was in a...

    Here was our excitement for today Probably happened yesterday while we were at Yoder. We didn't get back until after dark. We were there by 2:30 and were in the 3rd row, by the time the auction started there was 5 rows. Sold 19 cockerels for an average of $4.50, the way I see it is no more...

    Another beautiful day. I did a little cleaning on the pen I've got all the cockerels in. Hoping to take them to Yoder on Friday. Anybody need any EE, BLR Wyandottes, or BC Marans roosters? :/ My girls still aren't laying regular, didn't get a Marans egg today or a turkey egg. Here is a pic of...

    I am so far behind, I've been trying to limit my computer time, but I have taken some quick peeks. Trish, congratulations on the grandson and not needing knee surgery. This colder weather will maybe help slow you down so you will take care of yourself. Very anxious for a pic of the fluffy...

    A BEE thread....for those interested in beekeeping.

    Hi drakeschicks, good to see a newbie about to enter the exciting world of beekeeping. In your class are they saying to go with two hives (at least) so that you can compare and have extra brood to move around if you need it? I believe that the Langstroth hive is the best way to go also. Just a...
