idealpoultry.com you can mail order a ton of breeds from.If allowed in the forum, do you mind sharing your suppliers?
Also, the box stores seem to push mostly ISA Browns in my area.
Any advice on finding some of the breeds you mention?
Thanks in advance!
You were able to watch it? I really liked it too, very interesting.That is a great documentary!
Dear chicken friend.. we are our own worst critics and it's GREAT that we feel convicted by our subconsciousness!Maybe it is just my sub conscious bringing that point up out of guilt over their deaths, but it is hard to fathom the coincidence of two healthy birds dropping dead from liver failure within 24 hours of each other.
I wonder where are you located and did YOU read any of the ingredients labels on the feeds they had to offer.. or review the thread posted earlier that has accumulated all pertinent information on MANY of the feeds available to us.. to see which one might be BEST suited to your liking and kinda know what you're looking for? Always and I do mean ALWAYS.. get a second opinion on ANYTHING told you by a feed store employee.. most of whom often have ZERO actual animal experience and even those with the best of intention still give some seriously HARMFUL advice! SOME feed store owners and managers MAY be a bit more knowledgeable and more invested than a minimum wage employee. And some BYCer's even unintentionally give misinformation or learn something new but cannot change prior posts!The clerk at the box store claimed they didn't have any vegetarian layer feed available, so that goal still stands.
For the record note that apple cider vinegar will not do a thing for a worm issue.Last year I lost 4 of my best chickens and a duck to worms, they were lethargic, swollen crop, not eating, but drinking, and they all died really sudden. I knew it was worms because there scat had lots of little worm eggs in them with little squiggly worms as well. I would try giving them all apple cider vinegar, it always helps my roosters and hens.

I’ve used it for years and it has helped a bunch so I disagree completelyFor the record note that apple cider vinegar will not do a thing for a worm issue.
Ok...but I'm not assuming or making up that it rids worms. It's fact that it does not.I’ve used it for years and it has helped a bunch so I disagree completely
Agreed. I used to use it in their water and saw little to no difference. In fact, they slowed down in laying and drank less water. As soon as I stopped, laying went back up to normal and they started drinking normally again. Maybe coincidence, but....?Ok...but I'm not assuming or making up that it rids worms.
