I'm gonna take a stab and say 10 days. Just today I gave mine Wazine and I will give them another dose in a week (I think, gonna have to read on that again). But what I do remember is to wait ten days after the last dose. Seems to be a good standard with all meds. So I'm in the same boat as...
I do have to say, I KNOW! I was stunned when we found it for so cheap. I am in the northeast corner of the San Fernando Valley, one of the big parts of Los Angeles. There are many "discount" supply places and I got the expanded metal from a place called HD Supply (formerly known as...
Could one of you wise people tell me whats up?
My 13 girls slowly started laying end of October and I think I still have a couple hold outs, but I am up to 8-9 eggs a day.
Anyway, the very first egg yolk was that lovely golden orange... what all of us expect from our little flocks... BUT...
Yup. My husband insisted on it. Of course its not the entire wall, but is enough to discourage any night marauding raccoon. We sandwiched it... chickenwire, stud, expanded metal, chickenwire... and like I said, not the entire wall. We got sheets that were 3' x 8' for $6 and we needed 5... so...
I'm sure you have read and looked up everything to do for the process. I myself felt like one of those surgeons that replays the surgery they are going to do over and over in their head during the previous couple days. We did our first dozen last July, and I had everything so lined up, with...
Thanks JakRat and Silkiemomma for your insight into the "teenage" time. I am going to work with him and love him and just wait and see who he becomes. I owe him that.
We have been spending more hands on time with them the past three days. The no-pic is helping my girls tremendously and they...

Thanks, I'm gonna need your luck. Illia, above post, suggested the OEGB... and now I am sure of it. Of course I go off and say that I have no problems culling this unruly one from the flock, being a bantam, he will only get to be about 24oz. full grown! That's only a pound and a...

Thank you thank you. You are so right. Silver Duckwing OEGB is what is one of the breeds offered on the hatchery site that I got them from, and I too am now sure that is what HE is. I think I also might be a little sad. After you suggested the OEGB, I of course, searched the...
Hey All!
I am flummoxed. I have searched high and low for pictures of all different kinds of breeds... I have even tried to be patient, allowing this chick to just become whatever it is. But now I need to know. This precious little one was my mystery chick. It was the most friendly from day...
I think she looks Wellsummer-ish. She has the coloring of it imo. Its the comb that has me thrown, maybe it will get bigger or she is a mix... idk haha
OMG OMG OMG OMG SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
So let me tell you....
I went to bed last night a little dejected and sad, but decided that the chicks would be fine. I got up this morning and was having my morning coffee... and the phone rang! No one calls this early on a Sunday morning
Low and...
Thank You Joni!
Thank You Julie!
Thank You Dawg!
I will just take a deep breath and have confidence that it will all work out.
And I most certainly will keep you all posted
Long time reader, first time poster!
I am just beside myself with anticipation... My first order of 25 chicks are in the air as we speak. I ordered from Mcmurray, and I live in Los Angeles County. A far cry from Iowa.
I have been toying with the idea of having laying hens for several years...
