So sorry wing!

Can i ask another question or have i reached my quota for the week?

My Isbar chick that hatched last (about 2 days after the others) is still SO small. He has been out for about 32 hours. He is up eatting and drinking, but I have him in the house by himself with 2 stuffed animals. I tried to put him with the others but he just isn't as steady on his feet as the others and they knock him over. i am worried about him getting stepped on. Can i keep him inside for a nother day or so till he can run around a little better to get out of there way? The silkie hen is fine with me adding him in there. He snuggled right up next to her, but then she went down the ramp with the other chicks to go outside and the poor little guy rolled the whole way down the ramp and laid there on his back I felt so bad for him so i brought him back in. Does he just need m ore exercise to get his legs stronger? or should i just keep him in for a little till he can run around? He is VERY loud.... even with 2 stuffed animals to snuggle with. I will try a mirror...

Yes..quota reached last night LOL Nah your good.... Does he have a stuffed sheep to snuggle with? If so you don't need to worry about the otherr chickens just get him to love sheep LOL.

HEY! When you have a name as good as ours there has to be more then one to go around. The other year we got a bad wrap in Florida. Hanging Chads, pregnant Chads, dimpled Chads...it was a nightmare....I still have the marks from the pregnancy

I have gotten all the messages about barley,,,,we will bag it this weekend and let you know what is left....(I got galgo, chad, beaglady i think)...straw has also been baled,,i know people are waiting on this also....sorry things are taking so long but life keeps getting in the way. Wheat will be mid july..will not know price until harvest..

If possible i need to get some sleep

thanks for all the well wishes,,,always knew this day would come, it is at the point of telling a grown man that he is not capable of living in the house he grew up in....at the same time I understand he does not want to go anywhere else.....some very tough decisions coming up. he will be fine this time he just stood up to fast and passed out, just happened to hit the noggin on the way down,,,,could of been alot worse.

Dublin Agway, They don't have a a very large selection though. (Oh, I don't go to Jersey! lol) that goes the say direction as Davis. Davis has other types of medications, I can never rememeber names of stuff though.. but they all Farm animals covered.

Hmm, I might have to head over there then.

And I just got the Sulfadimethoxine as per suggestion, and it says only broilers or replacement chickens. What in the world is a replacement chicken?

How did I miss Edna saying hello???
Hi Edna! It was great meeting you last weekend! My friend really enjoyed talking! Sorry we're all crazy (OK, not really sorry, I just said that, you know we're all nuts!)

 

[chiques chicks]

Wing,
I've been through it. I have no advice. If you need to talk, I'm down the road. Make a little time for yourself, just a day here or there find somebody to give you a little break. It's never easy.

I don't know!!! I know of the Replacements, but that stared Keanu Reeves!!

and should you try putting that on your broiler?

I think i am just going nuts... I never know how much to give of medication either.. If my little guy makes it through what I am about to do tonight, and shows no improvement, I will be calling the Vet next!
