Awesome, then I just have a 'two too dark pullets' issue and his tail, ewww- his poor tail... maybe its not done yet...

He -still hasn't crowed yet, any bids on a -so far un-crowing cockerel?

They are all starting to fill out little fatties.

I'm sure I could track some fishmeal down...what should I use it for?


Debbi, thanks for the info! Humm, I wonder if the white tips do lead to over melanized birds--I think someone suggested that earlier too.

My mind is fried today--back to work after another weekend at shows. It's kinda ironic that the dogs get to sleep in today while I have to get up early to go to work

Mathematically, I can find the volume of items rotating in 3-D space and yet. . . . . I don't understand a lick of what Village says.
I like letters, we call them variables in math. They are our friends!

When Village uses them, suddenly I picture some crazy alphabet possesed poltergeist chasing me into the realm of insanity. http://i717.photobucket.com/albums/...leys Holidays/Halloween/GhostsHauntSmiley.gif

Bravo, the fish meal I use is the animal feed grade and it does wonders for the feathers and apple cider vinegar is also good for the feathers.

Very cool, thanks Don! I'll see if the feed store can order it (or carries it) and if not I'll check with a Koi supply store. I've been using ACV in their water and they do really well on it.

I am REALLY REALLY hoping to keep some pullets from this last hatch to grow out and enter my first chicken show. I'll post pics when they are older before I make any decisions about which ones to keep

Don, I was just looking for fish meal this past weekend - the only thing I could find at my local feed mill was actuall fish food - made by Purina, "Game Fish Feed" - I believe it was 32%. Is this the same thing? Could you share the brand & protein level of the fish meal you are using?
 
Don and Bravo, question??
At what ratio do you add ACV to your flock's water? I'm also interested in the answer to Wynette's question about the fish 'food' = fish meal.
