But it did understand everything else you said. Amazing!

Awe, so cute. I love them all! Like Kiki mentioned though, can you edit and put what image maker program you used on the top of each one where you typed. Like if it was Bing, for instance, just edit and type "Bing" up there.

Hiya, Deedee, and welcome to BYC! :frow We're glad you're here! We'd love to see pictures!

Oh my! I was going to older unanswered posts and shocked nobody replied. So, me, who has no geese but loves to research, found this. It says (geese) 500mg of niacin per 4 gallons of water, as did other posts on here. I do not see why this wouldn't work as it's just plain niacin. I assume...

Just leave her be in the incubator overnight or several hours at least and I think you'll see a huge difference!

This sounds right to me, but one person who I know knows dosages and the math to get them right is @casportpony

I think everyone's concurring that in your house at 71F, your 5-week old chicks are fine without added heat. You've got hardy breeds besides. I'm used to dealing with silkies, not in the hardy category, and they're usually off heat around then too.

I'd leave her in the incubator. Keep the temp the temp 99.5 and the humidity the same as you had it, guessing 70% or so. She will absorb that and rest/sleep a lot. I'd give her up to another whole day, but maybe in a few hours she'll look okay.

If animal control does nothing about a dog that jumps over fences to go yard to yard and came into your yard and killed 38 chickens, I would go over their head all the way to the Mayor's office if that's what it takes. That's rediculous that a pit bull or any dog can run through a neighborhood...

All hardy breeds. 😊

You can delete a post like in this circumstance when it's almost the same thing. How you do it is hit the "Report" button and a box comes up asking you why. Just say "duplicate post." It's not a bad thing at all.

How cold does it get at night and what breed are these? We put silkies out at 6 weeks when it's 50F and up. I would never want to know my chicks outside were suffering from the cold so if I ever think they might be, we have two Cozy Coop radiant heaters and we'll stick one with them for a...

5 weeks old outside here where nights are in the 50s, with no hen and no heat source, at five weeks, I wouldn't do it. With a hen below zero, I would, and have.

Like I mentioned, they'd be crying if they were that cold. Huddling up is probably what they'll do.

Yours had a hen though. The OP's don't. I still think 5 weeks could be okay though, it just depends. With a hen, weren't they out the whole time though? Most are from day one.

Below is the chart which is a guideline. All chicks are different, even each batch of mine which are all the same breed. Some are staying away from the heat their 2nd week and on the complete other side of the brooder where there is nothing. Ones I have right now are 3 weeks old and still...

I'm surprised they'd eat them because like Kalmbach's HHR has dried lentils, peas, etc. in it and that's the stuff my chickens picked over, so I now ferment it and they eat it. That said, a few would be okay but a lot of them might cause a crop or digestion problem. I'd be sure they had plenty...

I replied on your other post https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/x-ray-of-eggbound-hen-vet-was-confusing.1626634/ Maybe someone with more experience with x-rays or tumors can take a look as I went off the other post that she was egg-bound. Not sure if any of these folks are but they're...

I don't know what egg bound looks like in an x-ray, but since I see what the vet gave, they must've thought that's what it was as extra calcium causes contractions for them to expel the egg or partial egg if it had broken as does the oxytocin. It should work within a few minutes. I'd wait...

Hiya, and welcome to BYC! :frow Love your intro! Such and interesting field you're in with the cow cuddling and all. I hope your hen gets better. I see you posted in the ER forum. ❤️
