Yup, i got the poop on my back while feeding the young turkeys! The adults were up on the roost, let er rip!Keeping you all in my prayers.
@ronott1 and @perchie.girl, you two definitely need to rethink this California thing and move somewhere where there is a lot of water around you....like an island. All kidding aside. You guys are to be commended for not bolting for the border after facing 1 wildfire. You must be made of some pretty tough stuff! Personally, I want nothing to do with fire other than the one that is in the fireplace keeping us warm in the winter.
Yeah, I tried a worming method I read about here on BYC where you smear the paste on bread, cut it in bite size pieces and then feed each bird a piece of bread. Oh yeah? Really? With Bantams? I was chasing down 7 week olds because the roosters were calling them and giving them their 'bites' and I didn't want to worm any birds under 3 months. Then they started to play keep away with it. I finally caught them before they could swallow too much and tossed them the untreated bread. While the hens were scrambling for it I was grabbing the roosters and forcing the glob into their mouths. I got the hens to eat the treated bread and the roosters force fed their dose. Think when I do the repeat, it's Ivermectin injectable in the water time.
To make matters worse somebody pooped on me from an overhead roost.Little ingrates.
