yall

Bubbles you NEED AC!

I'd rather skip the air conditioning in this weather.

There is a dozen pure Ayam with good pictures and seller rating on ebay for 9.99, but shipping is probably 50 bucks.

Bubbles I would check and recheck meticulously for mites/lice on yer littleuns
Mines wasn't laying and I found out they had leg mites....
Even though they wouldn't touch my other girls....
Thought that was weird. They love my OEGB fer some reason?

I treated with horse wormer,ivermectin,1.7 I believe.
ONLY a BB sized portion to each.
Again in 10 days.

One started laying almost immediately, then went broody,Lmao
The other started back lay shortly thereafter
The other is a bit more wild,never laid as well as the current broody.always been a bit standoffish.
I will hafta get yall some pichers of em.

 

[LocalYokel]

I know a few of mine have mild scaly leg mites, but it is not progressing so I figured to just keep an eye on it. Maybe I had best treat it.

I live up north so I do suspect weather plays a part in it.

That was a typo and you know it.

 

[LocalYokel]

Really?

I know a few of mine have mild scaly leg mites, but it is not progressing..... So maybe I should treat them soon... Never woulda thought it could impact laying.


That was a typo and you know it!

Yes.
Leg mites will stop them laying dead in thier tracks

 

[BantyChooks]

Yes.
Leg mites will stop them laying dead in thier tracks

The only affected ones are my non-laying OEGB and my non-laying 7 year old EE. I always thought it was age keeping them from laying, but I will treat them and see if they lay again.

I was right. Shipping is eighty bucks.
