I don't know much. Have you looked into probiodics or some kind of medication, maybe? I don't know what else I could advise-I hope someone experienced shares their wisdom!

Thanks for the great info! I just don't think it would work. We would have them for guard-birds for our chickens (and the occasional meat and egg). I've seen some nieghbors with some, so I'll ask them about their experience later this spring/summer Thanks for the reply!

They are so cute! I just joined BYC today, curious on how it will turn out.
