This is great, just put a tarp of sorts on top for the bird's above, Although it depends on what type of preditors you have..

Your in ARIZONA, Ok let me ask you, I used to live in Az but never had any chickens or ducks, got into that when I moved to OHIO about 11 years ago, now I know you guys have poision snakes, scorpions, poision frogs, and even those creapy eight legged spiders. YEK,

Ducks here will eat frogs, I know it's grose but I have seen mine do it. GRRR, do they bother those types of nasty creatures there? I always wonder if a duck knows not to mess with certain creature because they instinctively know they are no good meals.. or rather snacks, Well NO meals because those Poisionous frogs are not a snack..

Some times you just never know.. We love quail egg's boiled.. Quick and easy snack.. For our last 4th of July we served deviled quail egg's at our B.Y.C. Seed box exchange.. We are hosting another one this 4th.. What is everyone doing for the 4th.. We just put our flag up today..

Here are the quail egg's in with wild dove egg's.. Duck egg at the bottom and our flock egg's at the top..

That's AWESOME,,,

OK, shoots, your gonna need some sleep and she's going to be unattended for about 6 or more hours. OH boy, let me think here. Let me think.

the only problem with the pills, they don't melt. She only needs about 150mg's so about a fourth of it and I wouldn't suggest trying to open her mouth and shoving the pill in it. Throat is to small for that. you can grind it up in some food but you know what will worry about that tomorrow. Lets see if she can pull through the night. I'm routing for her...

is there garlic actually in the brewers yeast?

Yes to the garlic in the Brewers yeast. I will be very close to a fancy pants pet store when at work tomorrow. What should I grab? And give me some back-ups in case they don't have your first choice. Also in the same plaza is a big grocery store....

Ok before you leave in the morning if you can send me a pic so we can see how well she did during the night, then we can make a better judgement, Otherwise, before you leave, Increase the moisture in her spa, Put a wet one on the bottom and a damp one around her. This way if the one around her dries up or tries, which it won't but in case it does, it should suck up moisture from the one on the bottom and stay damp...

for tonight, try to at least check her every 4 hours, this way you can get some sleep... I would like it to be every 2 hours but you have to do what you have to do right. I should be up so I will patiently wait to hear from you, I have some online work to do so I will be busy doing that.. but will keep checking emails for notifications.
