No not that I can think of. I wormed her with wazine. I was planning on using the valbazen oon them this spring. She isnt eating on her own. I have a video but I cant post it on here. I can send it to your fb messanger if you want to see it.

i would dose with valbazen in a single dose of 1/2 cc and then ten days later another 1/2 cc....and to be safe you can do it again ten days after that... but more importantly corid....orally at 1/2 cc a day...for the first five to seven days....after the five to seven you do half the dose...for five to seven more days and then again at half that dose...for another five to seven days...and then your done.....how is the poop...pics...how is she standing...almost drunk....not balanced...eyes closed my guess and not eating or drinking unless putting in the mouth....of the bird....right...if so then check out the forum below...where i tube fed the bird and the main thing is get the bird to a warm spot...mine was five feet from the fireplace in a dog kennel....main thing is to know when to start to tube feed....

Hello, I am in Northern Indiana, Goshen/Elkhart area. I am looking to get some:

Blue laced Red Wyandottes.

Black Copper Marans


I am building a barn to house my current flock of fun layers and then to start breeding these two breeds, along with some EEggers and work on some olive eggers. Barn wont be done till like June.

If there is anyone out there hatching soon and would want to sell me some chicks, that would be great.

I love the BLRW hens coloring, just beautiful. I have two splash hens now and need a few more and need a black roo to breed with them.

I have a couple BCM but need to add some new chickens to my mix of 2 hens and 1 roo.



Also, on a side note, How many hens will one roo mate with to truely produce fertile eggs? I ONLY have 1 BCM roo and 12 hens of a variety, 2 of which are BCM hens. He seems to have his favorites but the BCM hens dont seem to be at thetop of his list. I assume i just need to separate them and include the EEggers as well, so that will be 5 hens. I would think that wouldnt be a problem for him, however, till the weather gets better, i have no way to separate them.

Thoughts on how many of my eggs are going to be fertile?

Im going to start pulling some out to prep for incubation but its just been so darn cold.

thanks for your time.

I will thank you!. I have some. i have a pharmacy over here. lol. She is actually doing better tonight. I gave her an olive oil drench and enema in case of intestinal blockage. Oh btw. Someday I want a pair of peas from you!

I can't find my Chicken Health book, but I have a file of topics that I've posted before. I will keep looking for the book, but I would definitely take her to the vet.
Here is some info about CNS problems, but this info may not apply to your chicken.
This first info is from the book, but this copy is from the internet where a lot of the book contents can be found by googling Chicken Health for Dummies (and add a topic after the name of the book).

Thanks J! I am letting her rest after the olive oil enema and drench. I'll see how she is tomorrow. She is improving. Her name is Lacey. She has a counterpart named Cagney in the barn.

just pm me for when you need some birds....most of my birds have a waiting list...and you never know what will be hatched out...which also has a big part to do with sales...some of the birds are sold out for the season....and some im not selling any stock from...but with the peas i will have basic india blues this season...dont have any buyers at the moment for these birds....so your in luck...also try not to handle the bird that is sick unless you have to it puts more stress on the bird....and right now the bird is very weak....hope she gets better...did you get a chance to check out the forum with the pics.....also using gatorade...or homemade drink will do the bird some good ...if your just giving it regular water...
