Diary & Notes ~ Air Cell Detatched SHIPPED Chicken Eggs for incubation and hatching

[ozexpat]

Compost the chicken poo first. It is too hot. Cinderblocks also make a cheap easy raised bed.

when i was 16 i decided to use the sheep s*** from under our 120 year old wool shed with a slatted floor. 1000 sheep x 120 years. I made some very good gardens. Sold a lot of tomatoes

Here's some pictures of my duckling's feet. They are 5 weeks old and most of them look like the first picture. I'll try to start a thread later on today.

You can se the growth on both of this duck's foot pads.



This one isn't as bad, but there is still a hard lump with cracks.



Here's one with a hard lump in the middle of his middle toe.



Here's a quick picture of my little Moe. He's just starting to get his face feathers in.



and here's Goosey. She fell asleep a few moments after this was taken. She loves sleeping in my hair and snuggling in my arms.

Oh man those feet do look bad. Have you started soaking them yet?

You reminded me of my Aunts house. She lived in a flood zone. One year it flooded so horribly the sewage was everywhere, in the house, EVERYWHERE! The gardens too. Her flowerbeds grew for 2 seasons flowers that looked like they were on steroids. I'm talking marigolds taller than people. It was beautiful, and funny all at the same time.

No I haven't.. I'm still not sure it's bumble foot since there aren't any bad spots, but something is definitely not right. Sorry that they aren't the best pictures, the ducklings didn't appreciate being upside down so most of the pictures were blurry, but most of the ducks have feet like the one in the first picture. Do you think it looks like bumble foot then?

I have tricide neo and I could buy vet wrap, but I'm still not sure how I'm going to soak and keep nearly 20 feet clean out in that barn.
