Michigan Thread - all are welcome!

Wow, Chickenstock is tomorrow. It's not too late to make the trip...members that have been and those who have not...last chance. I decided to bring some small jars of my Maple Syrup to sell, or barter, like I've done before, and a couple bottles of my Cherry Wine for those that partake to enjoy (during the meal).

Again. Chickenstock is tomorrow - see you there?

Is anyone here have local eggs to sell? Shipped eggs not giving me much on hatch rate. Thought local ones would be better.

Does anyone have a sure-fire way to cure vent gleet(pasty butt)? I'm trying everything, and it's a little better but won't go away completely on one of the hens.

Not sure vent gleet and pasty butt are the same thing....but sorry don't know much about vent gleet.
