EDUCATIONAL INCUBATION & HATCHING CHAT THREAD, w/ Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs

Quote: I'm gonna give that a shot, if I can still get the bolts out. If not, I'll find a poly with honest-to-goodness tires & put plywood under the tub before I even use it. Might just line the sides with the universal cure-all, duct tape, to reinforce the sides w/o taking up any cargo space.

Pens is right; the steel tubs are heavy, even empty.

Last pip is now starting to zip!!! Meanwhile, the Karate Kid has a BIG mouth. I keep telling him he's not dry enough yet, but he just keeps wandering around the hatcher getting his head stuck in shells and peeping...

HOW DO YOU GUYS HANDLE YOUR KIDS GROWING UP???? I'm not one of those "slow down time!" mamas. I just go with the flow. But I'm seriously falling apart over DD turning 8. I CANT EVEN DEAL.

Hi everyone! I'm finally around after the holidays and insanity. Sold out of my whole soap stock and I've closed the store for restocking. Girls are doing great, they're getting lots of greens because my in-laws don't go through all the spinach and lettuce they buy. Just got back from the US yesterday and I have class today, fingers crossed that I don't go crazy.

Hey, hippie!!!!!

GOOD MORNING, COFFEE FANS! IT'S COLD AND LONELY IN THE DEEP DARK NIGHT!

Thanks, MC! I needed that!!!

Hi Banty. I've got 18 duck eggs!

I should have around 34 by Monday.

SET ALL THE EGGS!!!!!

Good Morning all.

First day this week that my morning wasn't crazy hectic, thank goodness.

Went out to feed the flock this morning and my LO rooster and I startled each other. I don't think he really meant to even come near me, so I'm going to give him a free pass this time. He basically used my legs to push off and fly in the other direction. If I had been wearing long pants, it wouldn't have cut me.

@MotorcycleChick Yummy coffee!!! Thank you! And CATS! YAY!!!

All of you with chicks have given me chick fever! My daughter is loving the ayam cemani and now wants that to be our next eggs. I'm not 100% settled on what we are going to hatch next, but I really need to wait until after spring break when we hatch for the school. I don't need too many chicks, my chicken math is already a problem.

I would just love to have ayam cemani (which autocorrects to "yam cement", in case you were curious) - but I've already got too much going on. I would enjoy them more during a more settled time (i.e., NOT this year). But I live vicariously through photos!!!!

Been meaning to say - I am completely fed up with pneumatic tire wheelbarrows. They go flat all the time on me (it's likely the terrain on my property, rocks and 2 inch thorns, etc.). Last two wheelbarrows I bought had the "solid" no flat tires. And I bought no flat tires for another one.

I like that plywood-under-poly idea!!!

Need more coffee. Then more grading to do...

Just out of curiosity, I just treated my birds with Wazine, and can't eat any of their eggs for a while. On the off chance some of them are fertile, would it make any sense to incubate them? Would they even develop with the medication still being in the hens? Would the Wazine eliminate the possibility of fertility?

Abstract
For studying if piperazine plays a role in teratogenicity pairs of compounds of similar structure and action (perphenazine-chloropromazine, chlorcyclizine--thenalidine, haloanisone--haloperiodol) had been selected, where only one of them contained piperazine-ring. The applied single doses were 3.7 X 10(-4) M/kg. Experiments were carried out on Wistar/H-Riop pregnant rats; equimolar doses of three drug-pairs were given orally on the 13th, 14th, or 15th gestational days, respectively. Perphenazine and chlorcyclizine, as alkyl-piperazine derivatives induced cleft palate and micromelia, while chlorpromazine and thenalidine did not. After the methoxyphenyl-piperazine containing substance--haloanisone--micromelia was higher as compared to that containing no piperazine moiety (haloperidol). These results indicate that the piperazine may play an important role in the teratogenicity of drugs in rats. (hese may include growth retardation, delayed mental development or other congenital disorders without any structural malformations. Teratogens are substances that may cause birth defects via a toxic effect on an embryo or fetus.)

WITH HYGROMYCIN GONE, WHAT ARE TODAY’S WORMING OPTIONS
Review of Parasites & Treatments http://vet.uga.edu/images/uploads/pdrc/0402.pdf

1. Tramisol

(Active ingredient: Levamisole hydrochloride) -
2. Valbazen

Oral Suspension (Active ingredient: Albendazole) -
3. Synanthic

Bovine Dewormer Suspension, (Active ingredient, 22.5%: Oxfendazole) -
4. Safe-guard (Active ingredient: 10% suspension, Fenbendazole) - Effective against capillaria, round, and cecal worms in chickens (not approved in chickens). It is
approved for turkeys as a feed additive
5. Ivermectin (1% injectable for cattle) Since Ivermectin went off-patent, there are several manufacturers producing it. Ivermectin has been
used orally via extra-label scripts to treat Northern Fowl Mite and capillaria infestations. Only mites
that are on the birds are killed. The 1% injectable cattle formulation has been used as follows
(personal communication):

I am never simple

I alternate between Ivermectin topically and Fenedazole. I started a quarterly regimen. I dont stop eating or incubating.

As my birds stop laying in December, this year I will hit them with valbazen the. It is Teratogenic. I can buy that in the philippines by the CC from the agrivet. The other 2 arent effective against tape worm.

I also have the parental injection version of Ivermectin I use on pigs but injecting micro doses in a chicken is a pain in the butt and prefer it if there are less chances to needle stick exposure to my people.

I buy the generic Ivermectin and Safeguard (Febendazole) from Jeffers.

Febendazole - I use the safeguard multi species in their feed.

​

BTW Birth defects = Teratogenic

Valbazen:

Albendazole Side Effects, Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) and Warnings

• Albendazole can have teratogenic effects, particularly in cattle and sheep and shall not be administered to pregnant animals.

Fenbendazole was tested for embryotoxicity and teratogenicity
in rats and rabbits dosed by gavage. Embryotoxicity was not seen in
either species, while fetotoxicity in the form of an increased
frequency of occurrence of 13th ribs and delayed ossification of
cranial bones occurred in rabbits given a dose of 63 mg/kg b.w./day.
The NOEL were 2500 mg/kg b.w./day in rats and 25 mg/kg b.w./day in
rabbits.

In dogs, pigs, sheep, and cattle, the oral administration of
fenbendazole at various times during the gestation period did not
result in treatment-related effects in the offspring.
