Having the same problem with one of my bards. It's cold out, so I'm going to gently wash her vent area since it's a bit messy. Then I'm dusting her with DE. My State aggie guy said never ever give DE internally. It's like feeding them ground glass. I made my flock oatmeal this am. She did not...

In Mass, in order to sell eggs, your chickens must be tested for avian flu, and salmonella. I will post the telephone number tomorrow. The testing is free, and you are given a certificate. This must be done yearly.

I have too many roosters. I have to give two away to a farm. I'm in North Adams, MA and would like to know if anyone close by needs a 16 week old rooster. Please help.
