    What do you do with eggs laid while in antibiotics withdrawal period?

    I hate to toss them? But I can’t imagine they should be put in compost - wouldn’t that contaminate the compost? And if I cooked them up and fed to chickens, wouldn’t that be prolonging the withdrawal? Not to mention exposing the other girls to the antibiotics? What do you do with the eggs laid...

    Tetroxy HCA-280 FDA says never eat eggs again

    I have fed 1 hen Tetroxy HCA-280 For 1week. I now notice it says never to eat the eggs again according to the FDA. I called the company and they said it’s because it passes through the bloodstream not the gut. Has anybody eaten the eggs after a treatment of Tetroxy HCA-280???

    I’ve been keeping chickens for ten years or so, and I’ve never had to medicate for any reason. A couple of months ago, I bought five backyard hens from someone local, and after a few days, I noticed their fluffy butts were a bit poopy. After reading various posts on a FB chicken health group, I...

    Is this Coccidia?

    I have dealt with Coccidia before, but I'm not that familiar with it. I made the mistake of introducing a roo who i thought was clear of it in wit my main egg layers. I took him out immediately the next day after observing his droppings. Now I noticed this. Not sure if this is early coccidia...

    DE, Eprinex & Elector PSP questions, for mites

    I'm thinking of getting some DE to help fight the mite. In reading up, I've also read about using Eprinex Pour-On which sounds like a good option, too, either or in addition to. I already bit the bullet and bought and been using Elector PSP. I've cleaned out my coop of all wood shavings. I...
