Hi, I'm Debbie from Dunnellon Fl. New to chickens & loving every minute of it. Received my chicks last Tuesday, so they were a week old Monday. I ordered 8 and received 8 very healthy chicks. Now have 7. My RIR started with pasty butt on or around Thursday. Did everything to keep her clean & oiled up. Last Saturday she just looked like she gave up. I fed the chicks some crushed boiled egg, and she ate some. She was the smallest & just hadn't changed as the others. I feel bad about her loss. She would root until she could get tight in my hands to sleep. The others appear to be fine & remain healthy.
Started building my coop last Tuesday. I think I picked the hottest part of the year, but oh well. Building coming along slowly. Ready to build the last 2 walls tomorrow. Windows should arrive next week.
Anyone here that lives round & about Dunnellon, Ocala area? Like to hear from you.
