    ALABAMA!!

    Stumpy, I'm really interested in visiting that waterfowl farm in Huntsville, too. I followed the link to their website and couldn't find any information about where they are located. how did you find out they are in Huntsville? How can we find out WHERE they are and if we can visit? It sounds...

    Desarei, the most important thing you can do in this heat is make sure they have sufficient shade and water that is in the shade. Some people add fans and such, but we're looking at months of heat. Make sure your coop is open on at least two sides so a breeze can make its way through...

    Newnan, GA. Chattahoochee Valley Poultry Association Show, Feb. 18-19

    Thanks, Hiltop. I hope everything goes well today! My family and I will probably wait and come next year. We've been traveling all week and I don't think anyone (except me) wants to drive another 72 miles this morning to try to beat the rain. :)

    Newnan, GA. Chattahoochee Valley Poultry Association Show, Feb. 18-19

    Y'all, what happens when this rain/storm comes in after noon? Is there indoor space for all the chickens? I was looking at last year's photos and it appears much of this show is outside. My family and i are coming from the Auburn area in Alabama and this is our first EVER poultry show. We've...

    Ugh. My rooster's rear is infected- there are maggots! What do I do?

    Thank you for that information about the betadine. I didn't realize that! I will go tomorrow and try to find the swat oinment. I don't think I have enough neosporin to cover the whole area! Thank you, too, for the encouragement. I do tend to beat myself up about this! Quote:

    Ugh. My rooster's rear is infected- there are maggots! What do I do?

    Saline solution idea- thank you for this suggestion. AFter my last post I went back out there and rinsed him carefully with cool water from the hose. I was prepared to physically remove the maggots, but the betadine I squirted all over earlier must have done it, because I didn't see any this...

    Ugh. My rooster's rear is infected- there are maggots! What do I do?

    Thanks so much, both of you. Okay. How do I clean the area out?! Rinse his rear with the hose while my son holds him?

    Ugh. My rooster's rear is infected- there are maggots! What do I do?

    Okay, this is totally gross. We've noticed for a few weeks that he didn't smell good, but we couldn't find anything wrong and he acts perfectly normally. Well, today my son caught him and we moved his rear end feathers back, and discovered that he has a violently red area around his vent as well...

    ALABAMA!!

    That's an interesting idea, Rosto! I'm not in need of any new ones right now, but would be happy to share with anyone. My chickens are free range as well, and I have barred rocks, mixed easter eggers, a few other types. I have one buff orpington hen who goes broody about 3x a year, and we put...
