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

[duluthralphie]

Oh, I forgot - at the vet, while the vet tech was holding Monkey for the vet to look in his mouth, I was telling them that he had never struck out at me or bit me, but I always assume no promises with cockerels/roosters. They laughed and said, "That's nothing - at least he's not a duck!" I asked why - apparently they are a LOT harder to restrain and handle in a vet's office...

Nope,



It is because dux are a cesspool of diseases and Vets are edukated like me and know they should composted......

I think my eggs need a calendar, been gone all day and I come home to SIX pips They're four stinking days early. At least they all decided to start on the same day.


The temp never went higher than 100 either.

I am glad you have a good handle on what to do for him. I am also thankful for you sharing all the information.

So while at TSC today I wanted to see what drugs were available, and what were not.

No longer being sold at my TSC are:

• Corid Powder
• Medicated chick starter
• medicated goat feed

WTH?

Clearly someone at TSC doesn't understand the new law.

Still available:

Did you see that link to the duck coop I posted? They use wifi, baby monitor and stream it to their phone! Wicked cool!!

Thanks, but I have to find something that does not need wifi since I am in the country. I only have it on my phone.

odd. My tsc still sells all those items. I will say that we are out of corid because of the manufacturer having some sort of Supply issue

Quote: I know that I've had a hard time finding Corid/etc., and noticed that medicated feed was low in availability, even at the end of 2016. I also wonder if it's more of a manufacturer/availability issue. (Unless the TSC staff confirmed that they are no longer carried.)

The staff at my TSC confirmed that they will not be selling any medicated feed. Morons...
