So I have to build a hot tub house to be tested? Well that's not happening. I figured I'd just keep a gun handy and shot escapees and not have to test them.
Seriously? I wasn't and may not, but Trylin wants to so we have to. Lord knows I don't have the time, buuuttttt. I have these brown leghorn rosecomb bantams that no one wants and they have to earn their keep somehow. Plus from what I've seen of Dels? It's not that expensive though I am afraid of cooties and bugs.
Reading the PP mag. shows are a good place to pick up problems. Those and auctions. Buuuuuttttt. I'd like to know how good my Dels are though.
Of course that means a separate place to quarantine show birds before and after.
Then too, that means more building and all that crap. Oh and cleaning crap, but I've got Jesse doing that for me right now. Mucking out the runs. What a stinky job.
I've got these silkies to you know. Can you believe I passed up free eggs from Alabama?
Hi Tim,
When I go to a show, I bring with me Oxine and Denagard. The Oxine to disinfect the cages, and spray on the birds once a day, If I go every day, and the Denagard to put in their water as a preventative.
I continur to give the denagard when we get home for a few days.

Since I started doing that, I have not brought home any diseases.
