Just heard a line on TV that I wish I'd heard yesterday when we were all talking about over-protecting rug rats:

God made dirt, and dirt don't hurt

In that logic

God made HIV and it certainly will kill you!

Not me, it won't!

I didn't mean YOU you, but you as a general individual.

That coop has something funny going on.in just learned this. This will be the 4th bird to get sick. 3 others have died. I am stumped as what is going on with them.


No poo, either. Only 1 coop affected.

Sounds like the coop needs to be disinfected.

If so how?

do you have any pics?? of the birds?
are they all the same age?
do their legs splay, or split??

I am not sure which, I don't want to go to her place risking bringing it home. She said her hen stands, falls over then one leg goes to the side.

Only way that can be done is if the shells are too small for the gun to begin with

Not sure of the details, just going off of what one of the lieutenants said many years ago. Was also told that another officer accidentally shot himself in the butt (or was it the foot?). That stunt earned him the nickname "Gunshot Bob".

That sort of leg problem could be Marek's, but it's not common to have so many drop dead from Marek's so close together. Still possible, just not that common. Other diseases and/or vitamin deficiencies could also cause it.

One of my sister's early boyfriends was sitting on the ground, resting against a tree, shotgun in his lap, squirrel hunting when he shot himself in the foot! A couple of fries short of a Happy Meal, that one.
