Such as... not in a car you plan on keeping?

Right!

Some places will have Animal Control pick them up

Really, seeing the crazy lady peeing in the yard probably would deter most things. But i'm not squattin in front of a bunch of skunks, I do have a few limits....very, very few.

That’s because they didn’t see ya’ do it!

Look my neighbors are all so weird, maybe if I peed in my yard they’d give me space!

I think most of mine would count it as a movie night. Shack man would totally be into it.

I am not convinced my chickens had Mereks. I have not had any deaths in a very long time. Just that initial die off, which could be a lot of things. Only every lost one polish at that time. They all seem healthy now and are laying great!

Did you ever send one in for necropsy after that die off to confirm?

@CapricornFarm ,
I’m asking since you sell birds at swap meets.

So glad to hear that your chickens are doing well now!!!!
And I hope you are doing well too! How are you feeling?

I can't have anything! One stinkin hair bow, just one! Snatched out and mauled by Ethel. Shredded it like a pitbull shreds a pork roast. Took a good chunk of hair too! My kids are abusive!

It started raining and weather is supposed to be nicer tomorrow so fence is going to wait. Instead I moved Chicken City.

Hopefully they will get more acclimated to the weather before going outside. I also tried to give Egret, the only standard size hen of the group, a little more room. She does good with the others but isn’t taking confinement well. She seems to get annoyed that she can’t get out and pecks the nearest chicken.

I left these two in the basement. They were separated until I spilled Cream Puffs water soaking the box she was set up in.

I’m still so worried about Mareks. Has anyone delt with it? I have a video I wanted someone to look at.
It fits but it doesn’t. The ages are wrong. And Gladys is from Rural King. I tried to find out if the hatchery they use vaccinates. I’m mostly chasing my tail.

I started a thread asking if anyone knows if there is test that can be done on a live bird.

Hopefully I’ll get an answer and can know for sure one way or the other.

FNF if you want reach out to @orrpeople she has a wealth of knowledge on the subject.
