Ok, so here we go.

So after a long period of thinking I have come up with something great to say for my 1000th post.

I will start by listing the things I have learned to do since joining BYC

• How to feed chickens
• What not to feed chickens
• What breed of chickens are out there
• How to incubate chickens
• How to save chickens from an incubation gone wrong
• How to do emergency treatment on little chicks
• How to do crop surgery
• How to treat bumblefood
• How to deworm chickens
• How to treat for parasites
• How to forcefeed chickens
• How to feed raccoons
• How to build nesting boxes
• How to build brooders
• How to build chicken runs
• How to process chickens
• How to cook chicken
• How to drive a car on 2 wheels (kudos Rebelcowboy!)

Last but not least I must thank my friend Joni for she has been helping me with wonderful advise on most of the issues above. She is a great person and deserves the utmost respect and love for her kind nature.

And in the spirit of one of my favorite Stargate Episodes (Heroes, part 2) , I will finish my post by listing the animals that all of your good advice helped save and that wouldn’t be here today if it weren’t for you:

• Tarzan the crop surgery chicken
• Leonid the aggressive rooster that changed his attitude and was spared the spot in the crockpot
• Crowsly the injured crow
• Kitteh, the little kitten saved from the heating duct
• Lil’ dude, my little runt chick
• 8 roosters and 2 hens from the incubator being turned off by cats during hatching and me having to “birth them” under the shower after being shrink-wrapped
• Captain Kirk the chicken who had a stroke (She has passed since  )
• Wyatt and Morgan, the 2 orphan raccoons
• 4 more chickens who did not make it but whom I tried to save and then euthanized humanely after learning how to do so on here so at least their suffering was over with
• 8 lucky chicks who survived out of an order of 20 chicks from a questionable hatchery who I believe has since then been shut down by authorities thanks to all of your advice. Nobody ever helped on finding out exactly what the disease as but they made it and are growing strongly.


Thank you all!!!!
