@ChickenCanoe Thank you, I have heard that before. I want planning to use peroxide after last night but I wanted ti make sure that it was good and clean. I'm so nervous about infection.

Good news, she had both eyes open today so the damage to her right eyelid may not be anywhere near as bad as I thought! I was very happy to see her looking at me with both eyes today

she's still sleeping a lot but she's a bit more animated today.
I originally learned that from a cocker group where they have a lot of experience treating wounds.
My wife went to urgent care recently where they told her using peroxide on her cut the day after was a bad idea.

IMHO, HP immediately after injury is OK. Otherwise flushing with saline is what I do. Then betadine, then an eye type triple antibiotic. Eye type melts at body temp so gets deep into wounds. If it's bad, do that twice a day.

Would some of you Experienced hatchers clear something up for me? I thought I read somewhere on this site that you can increase your chances of hatching females by putting your temp in incubator at a certain degree? If so,please give me those temps. Thanks :)
Not for birds. It works with some reptiles.
Here's a study on the subject.

No, pleas enligth me.

'The Peter Principle' is a management book written by L. J. Peter wherein he describes his observation that 'hierarchical' organizations promote people to the level of their incompetence and then keep them in that position, thereby weakening the whole organization. Employees continue to be promoted and it isn't necessarily general incompetence but that the new position requires skills the employee doesn't possess.
It further surmises that the hierarchical organizations positions will all eventually be filled by persons without the skills to carry out the duties of their positions.
He wrote another book titled, 'The Peter Prescription' which is how to fix that problem.
I read them both years ago. He wrote many other works but I only read those two.

Here's a modern day synopsis.

i wish mine would do silent and make her own food :he   she just screams and hits, then refuses to eat

please note i said that i was not as good as you, nor as fast

:fl   what day are you on?


I was thinking about going NPIP, but i let my birds free-range so i cant, but mine are being tested for pollorum typhoid and avian influenza in a couple weeks, for free, so i can enter them in the local fair



My birds free range too. Free range and NPIP aren't mutually exclusive.
Perhaps you could take the P/T test results to the state and they would accept that for this year's test.

Thank you very much. I am at the exact spot described in point 6 in the link.!
