@Birdrain92 , I'm always on the web and reading up on this stuff, and still have so much to learn.

Well I'm hoping college will help with vet medicine. Hopefully when I'm a vet I can help all you of guys.

Hmmm, where to start?

Do you get the difference between viruses and bacteria? And between bacteria and parasites? And protozoa?

Then you can look at different kinds of bacteria...

We'll all be in grad school with you before any of us know it

Meanwhile, I'm having to learn all the nuances of Lyme disease because it turns out that's a big part of what's been ailing my dog

. That's a headache, let me tell you!!!

I understand the difference between them. Viruses we have to let them run their course but can give antibiotics to prevent a secondary infection. Bacteria can be killed with antibiotics usually. Parasites feed off of the animals health and can spread diseases. Protozoa are single cell organisms that can act like a parasite. If I'm remembering all my info correctly.

Thank you. I won't let anything shake me down from becoming a vet.

I'm sorry, I'm going as fast as I can. I'm taking 18 credits this fall and spring semester. By the time I graduate I need at least 120 credits to get my B.S. in Animal Science and Pre-Vet. To get into vet school I want to go to I need: 3 math, 3 statistics, 8 biology, 8 chemistry, 4 biochemistry, 4 microbiology, 3 or 4 genetics, 6 English, 6 Economics/History, 6 Art/Humanities, 3 Speech, and the remaining credits are electives. To graduate in 4 years I only need 15 credits a semester. Since I'm taking 18 I might not have to do a complete 4 years. Especially if my previous college credits transfer the way I hope they do I can possibly be out before 4 years. Not entirely sure but I know I'll be graduating in 4 years. When I'm at college I'll be working at the vet clinic on campus so hopefully that will help me get into vet school.

Of course I will! You guys helped grow my passion for peafowl, have been helping me along the way. Not sure how famous I will be though, but I will always stay in touch and remember all of you.

Just teasing you a little @Birdrain92, we all know you are working hard and you've been tremendously persistent! As @barkerg said, we get a kick out of watching your hard work and devotion to your birds... Not that common these days. Keep up the good work and hang in there!!!
