Waiting for another letter regarding Tucker today.

If I have 5 (FIVE) females out of 70 chicks, I will be surprised.

Did I read somewhere on this forum that someone was having trouble with the purina chick starter?

It was suspected with the death of a CL baby from Green Fire--Mary took one in for Necropsy.

I do not recall a post about whether the feed was the cause or not. There may have been a test to come back on the feed.

Gruesome find in the brooder last night. I walked out to check on the grow outs and found a cream leg bar cockerel hanging from the string that holds the feeder treat BabyCakes. He had somehow managed to pull the string off, flipping the bottom side up to get caught on a bungee card and dropping the top hang down around his neck. I would post a pic but it is pretty gruesome. It took me a long time to figure out how it could have happened because the s hook was at the bottom and the X shaped piece of plastic that supports the feed cake was at the top.

Here I cropped the pic.





You can see the S hook around his neck strangling him. That was the top hanger for the feed cake. The bottom had gotten hooked on the bungee cord hold up a red party bulb.

I swear, the weirdest things happen to my birds!
