Nice! I'm allergy to goose egg though. When I was a kid, my neighbor kept a goose and gave us some eggs. They were yummy. Then I had hives all over my body after eating the eggs. Every time I told nurses or doctor that I'm allergy to goose eggs, they all had funny looks on their faces like "you ate goose eggs? "

Allergic to just goose eggs?? Do you react to duck eggs or chicken eggs?? Nothing's wrong with eating goose eggs, they just don't know what's good

well u know......I would like to have at least one welsummer, but the coop is full. Well we might be able to get one more in there....lol

I'm going to be getting a few more wellies soon if there are any left, maybe if there's a train later this fall I'll ship you out one of the young pullets or we could swap for your cornish

Oh my gosh Anne, I'm so sorry. I still have two turkeys and worry about that kind of thing all the time. They get into everything....I hope you feel better soon...

Hay, are there any vets on here?
I have a 2 month old chick that is just laying on her side she can't stand up. I checked for broken bones none but she feels thin she made it through the night but just barely. Is there anything I can do or should I just end the suffering? Any advice will be appreciated.

I'm sorry that happened, but your life is richer for having had them. I suppose from now on you should stick with chicken eggs when your hen goes broody.
Turkeys are different. I have a stubbornly broody turkey hen and while I'd so like to see her leading around a group of youngin's, I'm pretty sure she'd make a terrible mother. She is rather charmingly "stupid", if you know what I mean.
