The chick you asked about is doing perfectly fine. It gets around very well. Its head is about twice the size of the other chicks. I think it might be a mix between my jersey giant and brahma. It already found a new home. I asked for updates I wasn't going to sell it, but they insisted on wanting it.

thats good news!! let me know if you get any updates!

After I saw you suggest the farming section on CL to someone else last week, I tried, unsuccessfully, to do the same. What's the secret?

let me see your ad whites

Don't believe I have one running at the moment. I had a couple, but pulled them when I kept getting responses for totally unrelated things.
I was going to post another one in the farming section, but couldn't find it, so I didn't post it anywhere.

@hippiestink I know your busy but wondering how the flock was when you returned home and stuff!

Have a great dinner with wifey @LocalYokel



sounds like a pretty good retirement silver!

Still on vacation! I'll be going back home hopefully next week barring any paperwork issues. Chickens are fine, as are the dogs. Our fat sable collie is losing weight finally and husband's cousin will be taking pictures of the birds for me. I just can't wait to head home!!

true!  we used to go to the inlet and fish December for sea trout and stand at the railing and on the rocks, you forget quick about that cold wind when your floatin spot into a perfect eddy or sending out bucktails and feeling the stripers grab hold. 



of course billy! whats got you so busy of late ?

nothing really. Been busy trying to keep up with y'all and granny.

what bator are you thinking Billy?  have you asked on CL and put a want ad? or checked your local on FB and posted for one.  I would, ask for one in the farming section, not in the wanted section @rIrs roost

I have a friend that has one that they might give it to me. I know nothing about it at all. We were sitting around talking about chickens and bators popped up and they said that they may give it to me. I never knew they even had a bator lol.

You cant see always in naked eye! You should use microscope, as i do, you should do fecal tests as I do, believe me your chickens have worms! And they also have Coccidia, and they have parasite called Flagellate, and I am taking a risk here they also have the MDV that causes Marek disease, and they do have worms!
The issue is, was and always will be equilibrium! If you have happy, well fed, well provide chicken, that dont have a lot of stress causing reason you chicken will do fine! But if the stress load is high, like in winter time, the stress hormones, like Cortisol start to kick in, and the first thing the do is to suppress the immune system and in a blink of an eye you will fined yourself with a big problem! Problem that you could avoid by making some preventive steps, like worming your chickens!
And I don't see any connection between a dewormer that kills wormes that are Eukaryotes and the microflora of the chicken that is Prokaryotes!

Wao
South how do you know what your chickens have. I don't have any knowledge will love to learn how to tell when something is wrong what it may be.
