no way I was saying you should be happy that someone agreed with you. I feared someone would or might take it in the wrong way...

What is the best way to introduce a yunger flock of chickens to an older flock. I'm talking maybe a month different in age.

Very hard to communicate in writing. My sis always tried to be serious and factual in posting, and managed to come off in thee reading as a total witch! And she was such a sweet and soft spoken person that it was amazing that her writing caused such negative reactions all the time...

This is why I simply ask about intent before going into a huff! Some people react like I am thick as a brick to not "know" what they meant, so I appreciate that you had the kindness to not call me a dolt!

Hello I am new to backyard chickens and have a really big problem. I got 10 chickens from a lady in NH that had a bunch of different kinds of breeds. I got week old chick brought them home and put them in my 12x 24 chicken coop it was brand new. these were the first chickens in it. I did not lose any but when they were about 12 weeks old I lost one then a week later another. started looking on the Internet asking at the feed store. I finely got in touch with the state they came and got the next chicken that die ran some test and found out I had Mereks. All my chickens ended up dyeing. In all the research it says that I have to get rid of all the dust I have pressure washed everything at least five times with bleach took out all nesting boxes and perch's and replaces them. My question is what do I do about the out side area? and have I done enough? Thank you
