RodNTN's chat thread!

Thanks so much. Your kind words are so tounching. It's so hard not to cry right now. Neighbours are coming to make Easter cookies and I'm afraid I'll start crying then.

:yesss: YOU DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!! :celebrate
Okay, so what is your exact topic? :D

Well, I haven't done it yet, I have to print it out, write it, Ect.But I have to describe what chickens I have/had/want(Meaning, if I haven't owned chickens before, what breeds I want, but since I already own chickens, I don't fill this part in)How I care for them, if I've had them before.All that.
MY MOM IS ACTUALLY ON BOARD WITH ITTTT!!!!!
 
This sounds awful, but I have a bunch of chickens that are not named and they don't really lay eggs anymore, so they are just there. Lol. Everyone said I should cull all of them, but there's nothing wrong with any of them, so I didn't have the heart to do it. Anyways, my gold sex links have been dying like crazy from sour crop. We catch it too late and there's nothing we can do. There's been this other GSL hen moping around for two weeks now and I thought maybe she had sour crop too, but never really checked because she's dying, figured there's no use trying to save her. Well, she's been pulling through and still living here two weeks later, even though the other hens have been trying to kill her. I was bent down trying to get another hen and the sick one came over to me. Turns out she has a really bad case of bumble foot. Her toe is HUGE. So I figure she's suffering and the best option is to cull. She's still with the other hens. Figured it can't hurt to let her there till tonight at least till when my dad gets here, and we can discuss culling.


Oh no! I've heard of bumblefoot getting that bad, but that poor girl :(
Last year we had to cull 19 chickens because of a possible Marek's outbreak. Including me sweet Peep :hit so don't worry, you aren't alone in the cull boat :hugs :(
