Quote: Baloney........... I think you are watching too much History channel. This isn't exactly controversial or out there stuff here - it's a well documented fact that can be researched through whatever vehicle you prefer. We eat far more, and especially far more meat, than at any other...

Quote: Regarding my being a newbie, I've been here since March, but haven't had much reason to post because I'm not a chicken farmer. I came here looking help with bumblefoot, which I got, and I tried to return the favor by helping someone else today. That is how I behave on lists - I always...

I've been around the block with very severe bumblefoot (rooster rescue). That looks like it to me. I'd keep a close watch and see if it improves. Keep conditions super clean, of course, and a close eye on your others. If you end up having to clean the thing out, pack it with sugardine - a mix...

Thanks, Thebritt, Prep H! Okay - worth a try. Thanks for the pred. advice, too. The reasoning behind rubbing Rescue Remedy on the outside of animals is it stresses them less, and is absorbed through the skin. Our last rescue was an infant squirrel, who was extremely anxious - just her...

I foster animals for our Humane Society. Today received a chicken that fell off a truck on the freeway. We believe she's a layer past her prime and headed for the soup factory, when her trip was interrupted. We only know this: She weighs about 7 pounds ( I'm guessing - she's huge). She had...
