Any wise people out there that can help me with a dosage for neomycin sulfate 200mg oral solution? As in, how much neomycin to add to 1 gal. water?
Thanks in advance,

Hi all. I'm new to this breed, Black Copper Marans. I bought two fertile eggs from a local breeder for my bantam Leghorn to hatch; she's so small, she can only handle a couple LF eggs. The two in question are 10 weeks old. One has a comb & wattles, and the other has no sign of either...
I've never had such a time getting a photo of birds than I did with these! And I never did get one of the 12 week old LF barred Rock pullet...but I will because I would love your opinion. I think she's pretty "dishy!"
The Australian Shepard just returned from the back field with a "wild" turkey poult. It was bedraggled, buts otherwise ok. I gave it a warm water rinse, blow dried it, and put it in a box with hay. It's dry and under a heat lamp. It's pretty much fully feathered.
I have six Beltsville that are...
It's shrimp season here in Maine. I've just cleaned a few pounds of shrimp and am contemplating portioning the uncooked shells to the flock. I am a little concerned about how the greedy birds will process the shrimp's rostrum - its wicked sharp, pointy beak. I could boil the shells for 20 min...
I would like to buy a couple of dozen show quality bantam White Leghorn eggs. I live in Maine and show in state & would possibly show in Massachusetts, as well.
My first two birds were bantam White Leghorns, and one hen is exceptionally nice. I bought a nice rooster for her a year ago, but he...
Hey - has anyone else read this article on the chicken that is being credited for saving a family's lives from a house fire? And I hear tell that chickens aren't smart!

Hey all - just checking in to see if there are any breeders of show quality LF Light Brown Leghorns out there who sell hatching eggs. Please contact me via BYC - thank you! Maureen
Hi all - Apologies for not searching the forums more for an answer to my question, because I know it's probably out there, but...
I have a broody bantam Barred Rock pullet sitting on seven eggs - probably day six or seven. By all appearances, she's in it for the long haul. I am questioning...
Here's my cutest little thing, #7, having a wallow in the carrot patch (how could I deny her!):
She's the last remaining of my original flock, and she's quite a pet! She won Best of Breed & Best Variety at her first and maybe only show! Little darlin'!
I'm wanting to install two exterior nest boxes that the hens will be able to access from the inside of the coop, and that I can open from the exterior to gather eggs. I have a "chickens/ sq' space issue," and I am hoping this will free up the interior lay out just a bit. But, it's very important...
This hen is a feeding machine! Just a few minutes before this food event took place, she came loping around the house with a mouse hanging in her maw. Same thing last week. So I ran for the camera. No one believes me when tell of my mouse hunting hen. But she was faster than I; however, I had...
They love it, the little rascals! There's a gap in one corner of the fence, and the devils know where it is. They don't bother things much. They like to follow me around, taking shelter in the rows, nibbling beet greens and chard and begging for Japanese Beetles to be hand delivered.
