I talked to my Mom and her house is still there

I hope it will still be there tomorrow. This one is a very bad fire and there are two other ones in the same area.

Thank you for all of the well wishes.

That's very good news! Hope the fire gets under control soon. Kudos to the firefighters again!

My Marans just started to lay. I've had three pullet eggs so far.

There are 4 Campine eggs, 1 light brown from someone in my egg flock, 2 BC Marans and an EE egg.

Get the heck off my lawn!!! Or I'll be inviting you to dinner!

I was watching through my dining room window. There were about four more trailing behind. My next move is to always fling open the front door and say "Turkeys!!!". It doesn't take long for my Border Collie, Aggie, to "herd" them away.

Our son-in-law is one of the firefighters on that fire......it's a tough one. Last night he said the smoke was so bad and they were so tired they were all just st stumbling and staggering like a drunk. He was on the Chips fire before that, was just pulling into Chico and they said go now and put your gear on.

Paradise went through this four years ago and my heart breaks for all those people. We didn't leave because my brother was dying of cancer at my parents house next door. We slept in shifts.....it's so scary. Hope everyone stays safe.

Wow poor guys. I'm keeping them in my thoughts!

It depends on how old they are. They will build up resistance over time--that is what the medicated feed is supposed to do, but often that does not work.

Did you see Karen's Turkey yesterday? She uses that instead of inoculating for Mareks.

Ok, so if the older ones are three or four months old, then they should be fine. Do not wait for the pink poo. If they start acting listless and puffed up treat them immediately.

I thought one of my Legbars looked a bit off last night so they have corid in the water now.

Ron

I'm always looking at my chicks thinking "are they puffy??" I'm sure I'm driving Johnny crazy!

Hi Megan,

I can't find the post, but yes the older EO Marraduna Basque are between 20 and 21 weeks old.

Cripes, that means I could get a Maran's egg at any time they are between 21 and 22 weeks old. Lucas better hurry up--If I see eggs I might decide to keep them

Ron

 

Lol thanks Ron! Can't wait for eggs!

Hey we are ############ 6

Woohoo!!!

so i've gotten the baby EO basque chick cleaned up, and now they're all fast asleep again -- one nice moment earlier, i had let all the bigger girls out once i got home & the two 6-7 week old sussex girls also came out & were nibbling around in the grass, and i was sitting nearby watching them, when the big girls came charging back & started chasing -- and both sussexes came running over to ME and jumped on my lap, then one onto my shoulder, where they apparently felt safe.  such a good feeling!!

now need to make dinner and go to bed, totally not ready for classes TOMORROW...
