yea dont name them when your gonna do the eatin thing people.... thats a no no
I missed you girl!!!

@sonshine15

thank you good mornin

OH you all can either laugh or cry over this. I have the chick that had the broken wing. I kept putting a band-aid on it, wings were too small to really fix it due to the small part pointing forward...........well, she's/he's around 4 weeks old now. I grew up and have worked in farm country all my life till recently. Well, mom had a fall so I brought eggs and chicks to meet my daughter here, (we swap hatching eggs and etc) she brought me 3 Americauna day old babies...............with me in the back seat traveling from CO was Dumpling........yep the broken wing BO kid...........I have to keep putting Dumpling in with younger ones to keep any picking on away.........soooooooooooo

I called every vet here. No birds. I finally reached one in a neighboring town 20 miles away. Up at the counter was a farmer ......he asked if I had a hamster in the box......no.......a chicken please dont laugh........he was polite lol. So the lady at the desk took Dumpling back to the vet who was waiting to do surgery on a dog, just under anesthesia........she returned and told me it would need to have the small part of the wing removed and anesthesia would be 10.00. They would want to keep her overnight.........the vet tech came out to let me know things could go wrong under sedation etc but they would do the best they could and so on. So .............I asked what the total bill would be while holding my breath..........$10.00 for the anesthesia~

Thats it. TEN DOLLARS!!!!!! I didn't have to have her put down. Tears of joy.

Wow, what an awesome thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Dumpling is in surgery and I'll know tomorrow morning..............

Thank you Sally and right back at ya girl!!!

[Ur-ur-ur-urrr]

I know!!!!!
No I have not yet performed the eggtopsies. I hatched one CLB cockerel and sold him, then I hatched 2 Cockerels of Ravyns eggs and I had none hatch of Sallys. I won a CLB cockerel when he was 2 weeks old. So I'm just cursed.

Sounds like it. Have you considered goldfish? Sorry, that was completely out of line and uncalled for. So... have you?

back to work M'lord in the salt mine with you or off with your head

Not my head! I've grown quite attached to it over the years!

Hi Sally!!!!! I was finally able to post on your thread. Hi everyone. Everyone calls me red. I'm sure they call me other things too lol. Nice to meet y'all. Love all the pics of the little fuzzy butts. Sally seems like y'all talk as much as us on grannys thread?

Oh the saga of Eggbert continues...

My guess is because he only recently started walking upright, he developed pasty butt.

Both Squeaker and Speedy from first batch also had pasty butt, but Eggbert's was very grainy... Like he isn't digesting the chick food properly or something. So i took him to the bathroom and washed it off, and as I was drying his bum with the hair dryer, he pooped all over my hand...

Thus how I know it was grainy... And it wasn't a small amount...
