Bubbles was a boy though, I thought u got girls?
howdy!!

Yes, I got girls, but I thought I could make Bubbles work for a girl..... As I recall, there was some kerfuffle a bit ago over whether Bubbles was actually a good name for my roo or if it was too girly.

Call them George. Matter of fact, Call 'em all George; no mis-identification problems that way. Worked for George Foreman.

There was a kerfuffle and I missed it?

SQ? Photo shoot?

In a bit, I gotta get a nice enclosure set up for photos first, as of now they are in a macgyvered pen that doesn't look very good......... I wasn't expecting to get them until that morning, so I hadn't set up a quarantine pen. It is a very sturdy pen though, 2 x 4s covered in HWC.


I'm doing things properly this time.... Last time I did no quarantine, I brought poultry lice, MG, roundworms, etc into my flock. Not doing that again! Although..... There is probably not that many more things I could introduce.

I've named (real names, not food names) and butchered lots of birds, didn't have a single problem.

Thanks. What is the bee queen marking system?

Years ending in 1 and 6 get white, years ending in 2 and 7 get yellow, years ending in 3 and 8 get red (I use orange for chickens cause they're easier to read), 4 and 9 are green, 5 and 0 are blue.
That means birds can be 5 years old before they conflict with new birds.

That is true. But I'm not planning on eating any of my current birds that are named..... I have 8 birds that are not named. Those aren't staying after they stop laying.

You don't have to. But these are SQ Sultan hens, which I have wanted for a very long time, and there is no way I am eating them.

That's cool, I'm just messing with you. You do whatever you want with your birds.

cocci hits fast and you should really be prepared..
I gave the B complex shot when I seen the runs, and I do check poo daily, and started Dimethox orally x5 days
and every goat owner said they do every other day the B complex shot so before treatment and day 3 and 5
Obviously works well, she didnt show sickness other than runs and took care of it quickly

I stopped having corid on hand, aka amprolium.... I buy bulk and the Dimeth because dimeth covers pneumonia and tons of other issues that amrploium doesn't

Also I am sprinkling this in their feed Probios Dispersible Powder, and they have a small pail of Baking soda and Manna pro Goat mineral powder
I was told BOSS is awesome treat and really helps with their coat. So they get a handful each day. Black oil sunflower seeds

I do keep safeguard on hand, it really handles giardia well
and I did have a litter of pups that got it and it was a lifesaver to have in the fridge Although I use ivermectin for worming, not sure what others use for goats.

keep and eye on parasites watch their eyes
