X2 I sent u a PM, but I don't know if anything is going through on my computer. It keeps crashing. It did this before and I was going to take it in but never have.

I really sorry to hear bad news, I haven't read post in forever. I use my time w/ the birds as long as I'm able.I pray you'll find Sunshine alive and happy. I'm not trying to be nasty about other people's dogs, but dachsund(using you're spelling) are notorias for killing smaller animals...

I wastold Eprinex is the best for mites. Can anyone verify that for me? The mineral oil works great on legs. I haven't had leg mites, but I like to help keep their legs from being so hard a scaley and mineral oil does th trick. Also Kyzmette had said a long while back that peppermint works...

Hi everyone. I know it's been forever since I've been on here. It says I have 576 unread posts, but it's more than that, becarse I skimmed through for awhile. Anyway, I was wondering, those of you who use Eprinex, what is the dosage? I have lice and I think even some mites. It would be...

That's great. Hopefully they all make it. I'm still bad at candleing, but I can recognize the blood rings when they die. Hannah, started laying again, so her kids are going to go in the new growout pen, Glenn is building. Leah is setting again. A few of her eggs are 10 days old, so I hope...

Congratulations on your baby. It's great that he is doing well. I am so sorry for your circumstances. I know what's it's like seeing Dr after Dr and then the bills. I am really interested in the goose , polish and partridge rocks. What color is your silkie roo? My gese are my biggest...

Yes, just the amount varies. You can't use medicated chick starter on ducklings, however. How heartbreaking. I don't have much, bu tmay have some extra plywood and 2x4's. I'll check w/ hubby to see if he was going to use them for anything. Done on the prayers.

That's a good idea. I keep mine up, but always quarantine anything new anyway. I did report when I got a new bird, and I think it was Sherri who told me that it is best getting from NPIP but as long as I quarantined, I didn't need to, and even if I get birds from NPIP farms, I still needed to...

X2 It's like that country song to me. I love them all. big, little, short or tall. I put him in my prayers and u too in case God decides he wants him.

Very good input. I never think like that, guess that's why I don't offer much info most of the time. Fluids and electrolytes are always a must, I agree, and that's why we tube them if we're not sure if they're getting enough. You're always thinking on your feet. Thanks. How's your boy doing...

I never thought of that. It makes sense, but would he rock or nod like that if that is all it is?

I'm learning best through experience. Last winter I had a little Welsummer pullet get wry neck in the brooder. @Kyzmette told me vitamin e and selenium would help, so we started her on that and vitamin D3 plus niacin and put ACV in her water. Lots of boiled eggs for protein. She wouldn't eat...

It is so awesome. I don't see how Gary saw a watering can. I had to sit away from it to see what it was. Just amazing talent. I think this is one of my favorites. And I really liked the heavy kitchen curtains w/ the design. Do you have patterns?

Beautiful babies. You're a happy chicken mama and daddy. Sorry I thought I had hit you on multi and once I hit quote, I don't know how to go back.

What a beautiful girl! I have been looking for brabanters. Where did you find them? I thought for sure Greenfire would have them, but they don't. There's a Brabanter facebook page I joined, but not many people on there have anything. Are you going to sell chicks or do you have any for sale...

Hi Michiele. I haven't been on for a while. Welcome to Okie style BYC.I had four broodie hens and haven't had a problem yet. I had two born yesterday, so I'm going to candle the eggs to see if they're good. My c/w ctoss hatched 10 out of 12, the other two were yolkers.So for the last week...

That was a great story. They know when we are trying to help them, even when they're scared. Who said love can't cure? I have a goose laying eggs! I don't know which one. I got 4 new girls a while back but unfortunate;y, they haven't picked a mate yet, so I don't know if they're fertile. I...

That story made me cry. My geese are as special to me as my chickens and I've had more things happen w/ them to treat than the chickens. How is yours' doing? Ducks and geese get niacin deficiency really easy, if not getting enough greens or not getting it in their diet when they aren't...

I found the article. I'll see if this works Targets to reduce farm antibiotics must be set National targets need to be set and met to reduce the use of antibiotics in agriculture, before antimicrobial resistance claims more lives and modern medicine loses its most important tool, according to...
