OK. Another very very long day!!

Went to TSC and bought a tube of the Poultry Powder. 1 50ml of Ivomec, some 20 ga needles and a syringe. Plus a few other stops which I won't bore you. Came home and first thing I started was dusting the13 chickens. Will to test the bag thing I TRIED to put a chicken in it.

Forget that idea. That wasn't going to work at all. Understand its me, myself and I here. So I dusted the rooster first. He is very easy going. Wasn't bad. The girls on the other hand.

Boy oh boy. Had to first catch them. I'm

remember. Then the only way I could do it once I caught them was to hold them upside down put the dust under there wings. Rub it in. Turn them. Put some on the bellies, turn them put some on there back, turn them and put some on there AZZ!!!

Rub it in. Got crapped on a few times.

My wife came outside and was laughing at me because she sees the chicken upside down flapping with a cloud of dust every where. Which I forgot the dust mask. So at the moment my nose is burning. And I can still taste the powder. On the bright side I have no creepy crawlers on me. Sort of dusted myself in the process. And probably have enough in my blood strem they cant stand being on me.

All good I guess. Feel a bit light headed. HAHAHA but I always do.

then cleaned it again and dusted everything in there. Then put the 1cc of Ivomec in there water. Will do that again tomorrow. Hope this works.

What 4 days it has been.

Sounds like lots of fun! 1cc is for a litre/quart of water, 4cc is for a gallon of water.

Morning all!

Finally have my appt. to change from winter to summer tires. Oddly enough temp outside is 0 Celsius and sunny.
Today is day 20 for 22 eggs, 12 with saddle air cells.

Have a great day everyone!

Give your lonely duck a stuffed toy or a feather duster to snuggle to.

yeah, me too but an egg would be dangerous, if you had anything to fill the bra, my husband breaks eggs all the time in his jacket pocket, now would that be
