Is it sulfadimethoxine? That's what the white powder in the baggie you gave me at the Stockton show, correct?

Murray McMurray says to not give it to chickens over age 16 weeks. Any idea why?

You may now return to your lives.

Thank you to everyone for the advice and well wishes for my chicks. That was so scary!!

I gave my BLRWs to friend who lives in Grass Valley. They are the best of 2+ years of breeding. They are not laying yet, but you or your friend can PM her and ask to be put on a list for eggs or chicks. Her BYC name is Zoichick (Cyndi.)

Thank you. I will make a note.

I don't know the BYC name for these people but Union Hill Farm in the Lodi area has them, as does her family in the Hickman area. The Hickman family is on Facebook under Scotch Pine Rare and Heritage Breeds. All very nice people with lovely birds. I think you could buy chicks from them.

Thanks Dawn. Hickman is quite near me & I pass through it to get to my favorite Pizza place in Waterford.

There's also Baycox® (Toltrazuril), which some people have said works really well.

Remember when I told you that Hattie didn't want to go to bed in the coop and on clear nights refused. The General tries to coax her inside but when she doesn't go he joins her on the roost. I just think he is the sweetest boy. He doesn't keep the peas away like Ray but he is so happy to have girls at last that he is an utter gentleman.Well that is except in the morning. He spends the fist 20 minutes after being let out of the coop chasing and dancing and wooing and the girls are just not into it. He makes a pest of himself for sure

@juststruttin this pic is for you in particular.

You're so sweet. Love that picture. What a good boy!!!! Love your coop too.

That's good. She may have gotten booted by the other hen. That is why I try to separate my broody. I only have 3 nest boxes and 10 girl so the nests are in high demand normally. I also have 2 broodies right now so they are both in the broody coop.
