Have any of you guys used feather fixer to speed up the molt of your birds? I have used feather fixer, but the hen didn’t feather in any faster than normal. I think it’s just a marketing ploy.

Gimmick along with everything else geared toward people with a couple laying hens. Overpriced BS. Everything that worked years ago still works. Alcohol, peroxide, betadine, blue kote etc..
Why do you want to speed up their molt? You running a commercial operation and trying to get as many eggs out of them as possible?

Yeah just let em be and take care of em. Don't handle em unless necessary some birds just take longer my white cock always starts first and seems to be the slowest to molt back out.

Uh oh you’re on to me.
Nah I’m not trying to speed up their molt just curious.

Yeah, “the heard and not done” thing is a tough one these days... I’ve noticed that some folks will say “well I’ve heard .... “ or “well I’ve read...”

That I have no problem with... it’s when they leave that off and offer it up as if it’s coming from experience... as you mentioned on a predator thread the other day... it’s glaringly obvious who’s talkin from their backside on some of that stuff...

Maybe your old man was just pulling your chain with the wildcat

Some of those old names are just generational...

I said something about deer “horns” and got a little science lesson from an 18 year old about the difference between horns and antlers... this from a kid that had probably never collected a set of either, lol ...

I’ve known the difference between horns and antlers since I was about 10, but the old fellas always said horns, so I like to say horns some times...

but that was just lost on this kid, because when he was done, I just said “hmmm, well this one had horns....” and laughed...but I could tell from his reaction, it made him doubt everything he’d just said... so I explained “horns” as a colloquialism for “antlers”

But that’s the kinda thing that’s on here all the time...folks given little lessons on what they’ve just read

He was trying to tell me a wildcat was some other animal. I told him it’s either a damn bobcat or a house cat. I don’t subscribe to Bigfoot sightings. It’s just annoying.

To my notion a wildcat is any type of feral cat.
Could be bobcat. . black panther. . etc.

Oh I saw it. I don’t recall getting tagged in any other threads besides for the breed guessing threads. Thanks for looking out for me man.
