Wow! Thank you all for responding so quickly and the lovely welcome. I didn't recall much about this site, but I obviously thought it was great since I had kept it on my computer all this time. (Once again, I have proven that I was right) ronotti1 mentioned the possibility of worms and why I've never heard that chickens can get worms is beyond me since I've been raising them for nearly 30 years! I shall attempt to find my way to the ER and pose my questions there. If I get lost, which is entirely possible, I'll be back! Again...THANKS!
