Washingtonians Come Together! Washington Peeps

Hey friends! I’m still here, just lurking. I do have a quick question, has anyone sent a bird in for a necropsy to the state vet? I have something going on with my birds and I might loose one soon. If I do loose her I need to send her in to figure out what’s going on. Where can I find the info I need?

Thanks in advance!

Perfect! Do you remember the cost?

I think it ended up being $40? when I took a cockerel in. Been several years though

Thank you @Hinotori went to bed off early today headed to Costco today

Took advantage of the sunshine yesterday to move the little ones out to the new grow out pen yesterday. Moved the tarp off to let the sun in.

Red Rooster, my youngest mature male, was on chick duty. It's his designated job in the flock. Having no hens of his own, it falls to him to keep watch over the babies in the flock, and he does a great job of it. Tarp went back on this morning to shield them from the rain.

That’s really neat, he’s a big boy as well.

He's only 6 months old, so not fully grown yet. He's got the right color genetics I'm after. I'm hoping for him to sire a cockerel that's pure for barring to use next year.

Nice looking boy there

Penny are these dark enough for you the spotting has almost gone away and evened out the Marans color. Also I didn’t wash them just wiped off the straw with a dry paper towel.

Those are GORGEOUS. I hope my two Wheaten Marans girls lay dark eggs. They are such sweet little things.
