It's very meaty looking.

I have written to @BY Bob he's around

Aliens? “The proof is out there!”

You may find that her attitude changes when she starts laying. That was the case with my pullets. There are still some who don't like to be touched and I respect their wishes for the most part, but none are afraid.

I can’t figure if she is really afraid. She comes up and pecks my legs and arms. But if I reach out to her she moves away.
And she doesn’t really eat out of my hand - but I may not have found the right treat.

Awaiting bloodwork , but other than that, Jaffar didn’t cough at any time during the trip. Veterinarian can’t find any obstruction in his breathing .
He started coughing a little, when we got back home.

I once wrote up a long treatise on this. I will quote the experts.

According to poultry dvm the recommended withholding period is 1 day after treatment ends. So for a 5 day course. You discard all eggs produced while on the antibiotic plus any laid the day after treatment ends.

We can all agree that feels prudent.

Good to know thanks!

It's all about motivation. Be prepared though, I have 2 that will eat out of my hand that I dare not touch. And one that will not eat from my hand still.

"It's Raining Again" by Supertramp might be my favorite.

I know I have opened the door to rainy day songs now. So I will pay Tax.
