Getaclue very pretty hen and great job at the show!
I got the table runner assembled and started quilting it. Here is the runner "top" before I started quilting. Really like how it came together.

If any of you are curious and want to see what blackhead can do to the insides of a bird, check out this thread, it's has lots of necropsy pictures that show what it does to the liver and intestines.

Thanks again Kathy! I saw the fish zole on Jeffers but after the pathologist at the diagnostic lab called me back and told me it was banned for animals in the food chain I let it go.
But if I encounter it again I will have to do the same thing as I cannot keep all these turkey as pets. I have intentions of selling their eggs for hatching eggs and I only had these two in the one pen that got it. And that pen is no where near my new pens that all my other turkey are in.

Not sure why it's banned, 'cause people still take it for certain types of infections. Ivan3 had a good link about the ban, I'll see if I can find it.
