This is my 4th thread about dubbing

There is Little chance of frostbite in the bird of this thread, @roosterhavoc.
The bird is in the country of India.

I’m well aware. I talked back and forth with her for months about it. I was giving other reasons for dubbing.

I like to go in to the vet to bounce stuff off them, and they trust me enough for me to ask for medications which they dispense without the bird having to come in.

WOW! My vet won’t even do that for my pets that she see all the time!

You can't trust any old vet to know anything about birds. And its rare to stumble across one that even has slight knowledge. My dog and cat vet was pretty useless for poultry a decade ago. A few years ago his assistant retired and he hired a Vet Tech to work with him, her life revolves around her chickens, turkeys, other fowl. She wasn't going to work for someone who didn't know his poultry. She convinced him to go back to school and finish off his knowledge with Avian Medicine. Between these 2, they both now know a ton about poultry. I love it!

Yes in my city mostly vet kill dogs ND cats

All the dubbing info for gamefowl applies to all chickens. The only difference would be how much needs to be or how much you want to cut off.
Chickens with large combs and hanging wattles can get frostbite. If they get infected it could eventually kill the bird. A rooster with a comb flopped over his eye obviously can’t see as well either.

I agree with the flopping comb no chicken can see and eat

LOL...The Vet Tech and I could talk for hours on chicken health, it's such a treat to talk to someone who knows their stuff!

I used to be a vet tech after many years in people medicine. I feel like my vet is always put off by my experience rather than being willing to have a collaborative relationship.

I need a new vet I’m afraid.
