chickmommar! Are you planning to attend the Shawnee show? Lots of the BYC Okies will be there - and I know they'd love to meet you!
I think mentioning whatever you have to get rid of on this board is a fine idea. Making a BYC page is also a great suggestion.

Rabbits can get cocci from their own feces and from poultry. I don't know about cross contamination from other mammals. They groom themselves like cats, so what gets on their paws goes into their mouth.

Howdy P&B!!! Ssshh...we are doing research! They are looking up stuff on why creatures go extinct and I am increasing my knowledge of poultry...yeah right! I am dishing out bad advice and half truths!

my younger chickens that can get out from under the fence around the chicken yard, like to go into the rabbit barn and scratch feed out of the gutter that collects everything that falls out of the cages. They can make a real mess, since it isn't only feed that they scratch out.

I think the main concern with mixing rabbits and chickens is making certain that the chickens can't contaminate the food/water of the rabbits with chicken feces. When I had rabbit cages inside the chicken yard, I made certain the cages were covered so that chickens roosting on top of the cage wouldn't be able to contaminate the rabbit's food. Whenever I moved the cages around, the chickens had a wonderful time scratching out the worms and spilled feed under the prior location of the cage.

Are they learning that the primary causes of extinction in poultry are dogs, raccoons, hawks and the US Postal Service?

Never hunted in Florida! I kill me! I know you meant the one in TX... I kill me twice!!! Sorry I really am of no help. I have access to places in the panhandle! I suggest the drive and knock method. Drive around in the woods look for houses and go ask! Be surprised what the direct approach might do. I would do this way in advance of the season though. Might try putting an add in the paper or up at the feedmill/coffe shop/anywhere the owners of land might gather...say Auction barn...

Silly Teach! Queen Scoot is surely talking about Miami, OK. I don't know of any place...maybe Quenston or Slightly Cracked could help you...?

By the way, Teach - Miami, OK is a few miles East of Woodward...no wonder you don't know about it...hee hee!

You silly! Actually they are looking up...Japanese Sea LIon, Biji river dolphin, british wolf, glden lion tamarian, blue whale, etc.. Everyone has to do reasearch on the panda...cuz of that guy that proposed we were wasting our time trying to save a creature that ate one thing and lived in one place...he claims it has niched itself out of existance...
