[Chubby Chicken]

Wow, that's no fun! I hope your week is better. I hate the hospital!

The Bantams are Silver penciled and silver laced cochins. They are my very favorite. They let David pet them. The afro-heads are Silkies, I think they are blue or mottled. The big girls are Black Copper Marans, and the rooster and his gal are Wheaten Marans. The thought is to bred him with black coppers to make Blue Copper Marans.

I started out with the vision of all BC Marans, but starting collecting chickens, and ended up with a chicken husband. He has decided to build a big stationary coop for the big girls.

That was for Renee. Sorry, I suck at navigating this forum.

Quick question: I am stocking my chicken first aid kit. Where can I find Corid in WA?! I bought Sulmet today and also have Duramycin-10 (which seems to have been a useless purchase since I can't actually find a use for it on the forums other than everyone saying "There's better stuff for whatever you're trying to treat" Doh!) So yeah, where can I find Corid? If we have a problem I don't want to have to start with Sulmet since my birdies are still so young.

Feed Stores carry either the powder or liquid in a jug.

You may want to try some nice smelly canned cat food or dead fish (just make sure Jack can't get it). When they come for dinner give em a lead injection.

Locals around here say they gotta be Mink, not ferrets, unless someone dumped a pair of ferrets out on our road...could happen!
Will try the extra smelly fishy cat food tonight & DH just got chicken livers to put in 2 X-Tra large rat traps he is wiring to a fence......I want these critters bad !

I have called 12 places within reasonable driving distance...nothing! Can anyone point me to an online place to buy? Thanks!

I have called multiple locations of: Mud Bay, Del's, DeYoung, The Grange, Reber Ranch. Nobody has it! I'm going to order online today so I have it on hand.

Is it Del's? They don't have it either

Poo on them!

OK one more question before I order: What concentration do I use? There is 9.6% and 20%. I assume you mix both the liquid and the powder with water, so is it just a matter of price and packaging (meaning liquid or powder?).

Remember powder is cheaper to ship, I get the powder & add 1/3 tsp per gallon to the water.
