What poop test on Amazon? Is it reliable or are you pulling my leg?



Hard to say honestly. The fur around her neck is thick and black. I can feel a bump of some sort and it's oozy. It's right under her collar so I took that off for now. I tried looking at it and she freaks out. Like riding a bucking bronco! She likes a cold compress on it and she's let me do that a little. Hardheaded Healer!!



I can attest. Gotten several birds from her and planned on a few more. Maybe not now though....

Do you think her feed it price comparable? It would be my luck I'd buy it and no one would eat it. Also, do you drive here to get it? I think shipping would be a tad expensive.



Nothing I can think of. It's nice to know everyone is thinking of me and my little menagerie.

I may need help building a coop. LOL

If I'm totally honest it's the finances that worry me most. I would forgo food before I'd let my pets starve. A cleaning lady doesn't make much money. Hours are limited because places want the building cleaned while no one is there. So I make several stops a night and even work in the day at times too. Makes keeping any sort of schedule difficult.

I know I will figure out how to take care of everything that needs done. I'm scared, I'm hurt and I'm angry. But I will go on!

FECAL WORM TEST

It is Fall, season to slow down or quit laying. Could be that is all. Do you have light in your coop?

No I don't

FECAL WORM TEST

The test Kiki listed has a lower cost per test. $10/test if you send up to 3. Less if you send more. A flock would only need one test, if one bird has them, worm all.

 

[Parront]

No I don't

Winter laying is always less. Sometimes no eggs!

You're a useful guy to have around. I'll save this chart.

I can load up the rest of the set if you like.

Snorting the coffee here! LOL

Hahaha! Took me a second read to get that!!!

Break time. Cannot get too far behind.

Her feed is $18 for a 20 lbs bag. I have never bought feed or chickens anywhere else so I don't know how cost compares. She doesn't ship anymore but I have always driven there to get feed anyway. It's about a 1 and 1/2 hour drive but DH and I always try and make a day of it and go to a museum or the Westside Market or check out a new restaurant in the Cleveland area. I always buy 2 bags so I don't have to go as often
