    Ask on the TN Valley Poultry CLub page on fb. I know the person is a member of the club, but I don't know the name. Or I could ask DH to look it up on the list from the Dixie Classic.....

    Quote: I was going to try that as well...but I had heard to let it go as high as it can on day 18. Now im nervous I will drown them? I figured I would keep it between 25-35 day 1-17. That's what worked best for me. When I went to 45 from those numbers I was fine. I do dry hatches all the...

    Quote: 'Cute' is a relative term. I find them disgusting and their skin creeps me out. I like my rodents to be covered in fur, thank you very much!

    Bairo, an important thing to remember about the Marek's vaccine is that it does NOT guarantee against Mareks. Also, it's really only effective on chicks. So you risk the adult flock if you start vacinating chicks. There are some that say it does not shed, but I don't see how it can't if there's...

    Quote: Read up on Mareks That's what it sounds like to me.... Noooooo! That word scares me to death. There was a lady on the imported thread that bought infected birds from a reputable breeder and she described her experience. They had the typical leg thrown out behind them posture...

    Quote: I can't have a dog, much less one the size of a horse. Please don't post any more pictures. Although, as I looked at the little cuties I thought, "Even if I had the $100 I'd buy another Brinsea instead." So I guess I can resist puppies & bunnies! Yay me!! I don't vaccinate for...

    I'm no help, Bairo. At this point I would've put him down. It sounds too serious if he's continuing to go down while on antibiotics. That screams viral issue, where the meds are no help. Virus means contagious. If she has other birds then she is putting them at risk if this roo isn't isolated...

    Quote: It was the 2nd meeting. The first was in October but I didn't know about it until too late. There wasn't one in nov due to nationals & crossroads. I'll definitely keep you in mind for that, but first we need to get a website set up. I was hoping to get an Access program set up for...

    Quote: When I was at a GA show earlier this year they were talking about a woman who made big bucks selling caponized birds. Said they'd stay tender for years until you offed them. Apparently it was a really big deal to a lot of folks once upon a time. DH didn't get it until I explained why.

    So what you're saying is we need to shift our process-doomed birds to the next house on the list, and then everyone can do the deed on someone else's birds? Except Nella, who would simply have different birds to feed?? ( )
