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

[mlm Mike]

Why didn't you brew enough for all of us?

It gets messy!

 

[mlm Mike]

It's time to eat something and head out. Have a great day everyone!

I think they and Nestle merged at some point. Think of that when eating chocolate!

...

It gets messy!

Well ok then.

Have a great day too!

The machined parts probably are...but I think the main concern the mechanic conveyed to me is having everything perfectly aligned, timed and spaced.

I wouldn't trust her. It's too early in the morning for Banty to make any sense.

Early?

Any type of timeframe for a repair to be completed?

And don't forgot about the heat affects Banti's brain.

That I can't deny.

(I've noticed that about her but I don't say anything. I just try to be nice to her and hope for the best.)

Crazy humidity, isn't it?
U of KY uses a CEH ointment to treat bumblefoot in raptors.
All I could get before was a Calendula cream and extracts of Echinacea and Hypericum. They didn't mix well because it was like trying to mix oil and water. I did use it successfully on 3 other birds in the past but the cream is now expired.
If daily soaking in Epsom salts and the herb treatment doesn't help in 4 or 5 days, I may have to break down and take him to the vet. He's my most valuable rooster since he is not from my flock's gene pool.
I just want it cured before the infection gets into his bone.

CC, taking a chicken to the vet? I think the world is ending.

Hard to get things done that way, though.

I don't know....depends on what you're wanting to get done, and its position on the priority list.

Early?

CC, taking a chicken to the vet? I think the world is ending.

Yes...too early.

to you too! It's hard to know when you're going to crack. I live with this pressure...poor me.

True enough. My list fell off the table. Who knows where it could have gone.
Oh well!

We have about 4 good avian vets that treat poultry. Trouble is, they're all at least an hour away. 3 through city traffic to a posh part of town and you need an appointment. The other I've been to before is a country vet way over in Illinois. I'll probably go there because treatment may be cheaper.

Hard to believe anything's cheaper in Illinois!
How you been? Still up to your a$$ in alligators?

 

[BantyChooks]

Yes...too early.

to you too! It's hard to know when you're going to crack. I live with this pressure...poor me.

Yeah, poor you....

I don't know....depends on what you're wanting to get done, and its position on the priority list.

Position? I'm pretty sure Benny can figure that out right fast.

Or to Israel. ...
My friend have them, there will be no problem to supply you 20-30 eggs. .... the problem is just the delivery method!

Get them through TSA (airport security) in the bottom of a golf bag. @ozexpat does/did it all the time, USA to Philippines.
