Someone on here mentioned Many different issues that could cause the Symptoms ? 
Um did i post symptoms ? 
here they are 

Coughing and sneezing 2 pullets Died with in 2 days they where always smaller then the rest of the 17 i had gotten from a show / breeder .
they where shipped at a day old . i also got eggs from another breeder in California I am hurt but not out 

the juniors are 15 days apart and yes i can tell a big difference on who is who and all from live chicks sent have a yellow band all from eggs have a blue band all on the right side of my house 
2 yellow banded pullets died yesterday i culled one of the younger yellow banned Cockerel as he was not eating or drinking even when id put him in a separate area My potting shed was his home cleaned and an indoor out door lost 2 lbs and that's a lot for the little guy who barley grew in his feathers . as i go threw this trying to keep my adult birds and turkeys healthy as they are in the front and left side of the house i am keeping a close eye on the junior birds . so far they have snapped out of this Upper resp the weak ones are gone , i also plan on having them checked again in 4 weeks and again in 3 months after that . if all is well as the Secondary cockeral grows his name is Maylox i will have some extra girls to cull. my plan is instead of eating ship to lab again and make sure all is well.

Feathers are being eaten anyone know what can cause them to do this as so far all 3 that have died have feathers in their Craws and gizzards . anyway i am keeping up with this was up late last night watching the lights in the sky many i think 15 falling stars and 2 satellites flew by as i pondered and listened bleaching my boots for today's trip into the juniors coop . i now have 3 sets LOL 

Eating feathers is a sign of protein deficiencies.

I hope this isn't taken the wrong way, but it would be a lot easier to read and understand your posts if you used commas, caps when appropriate and periods at the ends of sentences.

I won't block someone's posts over poor punctuation, only for offensive behaviour, so I shan't block you.

I'm so sorry you got shot in the head - you are very lucky to be alive so spelling and stuff is way beyond what I could imagine.

Try some probiotics. This will help them make the best use of everything they do eat. There are some that you can either dissolve in the water or sprinkle on the food. They aren't exactly cheap, but could help lower the feed bill as well as help the birds grow well and stay healthy.

Well, why not try a blog! That way you can actually see your progress on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis.

Writing classes would be good too. And writing about what happened would be very cathartic perhaps. Although perhaps reliving it wouldn't be so good. If it was me, I'd want to forget the whole thing. That's very brave of you.

This is a good example of why I resist commenting on other people's spelling and punctuation in a public forum ... there is usually a very good explanation. And I'm pretty sure nobody is more aware of the situation or knows of more "solutions" than the author ...

I'm glad you survived, Tammy N. And I'm sorry something like that happened to you. I'm impressed you have time and energy for hobbies!

Quote: Leslie , at first i had nothing not even knowing who i was for a while . then i got to walking, it takes time to heal and lots of Love I used to get totally Mad at myself , you know i would know i knew how to do something and when id get to doing it completely be lost or be half way threw simple things like math and everything would just go blank like id be staring at paper and nothing its work and i have time . Patients LOL learning that . some of my PTSD gets involved when i am doing things or worry . but the chickens calm me molly and Patron are like little kids who snuggle molly once laid an egg in my lap i was like G thanks LOL Patron comes and gives hugs litterally puts his head on my shoulder sideways like he wants a hug and most fo the time thats when im needing one Kinda weird but fun and really makes them special in my heart ., My cat are also a hobby I am retired from real work but have too much time on my hands and i am not one for sitting still. I hired 5 contractors the first 4 yrs to help me redo my house and hired other people to help me redecorate . Yupp i was bored so the cats and the genetics of them kept me going when someone tells me i can not do something im the first to prove them wrong. Its all mind over matter in many instances my doctors told me id be bed ridden for the rest of my life would not know anyone and my responce was they where not God and no one since i was 18 even my father could tell me what to do . im stong willed have only 3/4 of my brain shrapnel that if you seen any of my Mri's or cat scans you would thing you where looking up at the stars . deaf in the right ear and one heck of a plastic Surgeon put my ear and face back together on the right side . All pretty interesting but still the fight and the trauma have nbt left me and when someone Brings up things they notice or tell me how to spell a word it is not taken as an insult . I am wanting to take the class for myself . I reread my post and feel maybe it sounded like i got upset but i have a good friend who can not under stand half of what i write,. so i do understand and it helps me when people point things out , Other wie how would i know what i need to work on to get back to who i once was ?
