    Just found a dead chick.

    I just found this thread and I have a few questions I hope someone can answer. On the 2 nd day of corid treatment is there something along with their feed I can give them to help them along? What if anything can I do to treat their run before allowing them back into it? They are now quarantined...

    How do I somewhat sanitize a dirt run after cocci outbreak? I cannot move the run. And how soon after the 5 day treatment can I leave the chicks back out?

    Thanks so much, I am in a panic never had this happen before,we did have a lot of rain here and the run did get wet so wonder if that had something to do with it. I realize it is in the ground all the time but am sure the wet ground did not help. Will treat everyone and I have the one...

    What did you use on top of the wood on the garden section to prevent the wood from rotting over time? Love this idea but not sure how to get past that one issue.

    I love corn on the cob also can hardly wait till it comes into season. I love to make mine in the microwave in a microwaveable steamer,a little water in the bottom and cook 2 min. Per ear and done.i found that it keeps the kernels from getting mushy doing it this way.

    Boiling Eggs

    I agree really think steaming is the answer. I know with the egg cooker it is the same principle as steaming,water in bottom of cooker and the eggs sit on top of water in an egg rack. You poke a little hole in the shell place in the rack put the glass lid on and turn it on . Works great,and...

    I know this is a chicken forum but I also had bees but sadly lost them to the mysterious hive collapse. Would like to set my hives back up but am a little gun shy. Live in the middle of orchards so know I have a good place for them so any insight would be appreciated. Had the hives for 2 years...
