Sam, it's a Mandevilla. Beautiful plant!

Jenerva, birds affected with gape worm will stretch out their necks and gasp (gape) for air and will occasionally shake their heads. They tend to be emaciated and weak . The ynormally keep their eyes closed with their heads pulled back against their and are reluctant to move.

Given the paralysis exhibited I would tend to agree with Wynette.

I have two ee hens but love the blue eggs myself and plan to breed them to Idiot(my new cockeral) in the spring so I can have more beautiful blue eggs. They lay really nice sized, smooth ones and are very consistant. Hope you find a couple of colored layers.

Jenerva, sorry about your bird. If you really think it gape you will need to use a wormer that specifically says it treats it. Worminator from Twin City Poultry Supply comes to mind.

Best wishes for your flock.

Back up and running. My computer's video card took a dump this morning, so I threw two other computers together and made a super computer. Ha.


Anyone having computer problems, and needs some help, feel free to message me.

My first egg!

What a perfect specimen. Light tan, smooth, laid in the nest box. Maybe a little smaller than a store medium size but I'm happy as can be.

Oh my, that was a tasty egg!

Nice orange yolk standing tall, did not break "over easy".

Made me hungrier. Fried some store bought eggs...flat yellow yolk...needs salt and pepper.

I'm officially spoiled now!
