Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

It is. But I don’t believe the issue is Marek’s. These chicks would have been vaccinated in day one or two and the vaccine takes a bit of time to ‘take’ (unscientific description for the chick to build immunity).
Some people say that takes three or even four weeks, although the only scientific study was pretty clear that it was 10 days.
Anyway, that was the quarantine I had to do with my Hooligans. Bob’s rascals are older so it is about other diseases but it shouldn’t be about Marek’s as they built their immunity long before they set out on their journey to FBA.

Oh I see. Bob needs a second perimeter fence so he can let the littles out of their coop and sit with them in a run within a run. Is that possible Bob?

Exactly. Something to keep them away from the others but big enough for him to sit so they can climb over him.

Oh its thirsty Thursday!

Good thing I don't use anything but water to clean feed bowls! Turn my back to get the scrubber and they were right in there sampling the water hahaha

And of course the puddles are a big hit as always!

......poop on him, peck his eyes.... Oh wait, sorry, that was Goldfinger

Ok climb on him, beg for treats

Well, I’m sure that there’s a huge bird in Australia. (They have all the dangerous animals there)

Yep the cassowary but I think they are also herbivores.... @LozzyR is that correct?

Imagine this girl right here at 6 foot tall. I'm repurposing shark cages and using them for my own protection.

Yup seriously!!!!

@MaryJanet is the cassowary an herbivore?

@featherhead007

Alex how are you doing

Did not be nervous xzit is doing all the work!

 

[MaryJanet]

Yup seriously!!!!

@MaryJanet is the cassowary an herbivore?

Omnivore I'd have thought.

They're extremely dangerous. Never approach a cassowary.

I'm STILL in great shape, too!!! The great shape of a sphere. I'm an equal opportunity geometric shape lover. This shape just rolls, instead of my former shape that could run.

It's a great shape in my humble opinion! Where beginning and ends meet, it's all good!

I've read a little more of the context to PP's cassowary question. Emus are our largest bird. They're as tall as a human, so they can be rather intimidating but they're actually rather nice.
