See that bothers me. Not that you scrapped it but that they WASTED it. All the cost to produce it and then just dump it back in the circle. We all pay for that kind of Waste either in taxes or in prices.
I will tell ya that if somebody loaded me with stuff like that and I knew it was not hot I would scrap it too. Wait a minute DUMP TRUCK yer spoiled. I have a crane for loading but have to hand pitch it all off most of the time. One guy will and I will allow him to off load me with the excavator.

yep, I constantly shake my head at the waste in construction. its always bothered me. and yes dumptruck! ha! lol I load my own with excavators, I can run those too. I once ran an end dump to the scrappers and there was a dead skunk in the scrap that we didnt know where it was but could smell it...hehehe... I dumped and left in a hurry!!

Nope, it's from my own personal experience.

how many times has that happened to a bird you gave baytril too?

Two for two....and since they were / are my best pair of blue salmon bantam Faverolles, that's enough of a loss for me to stop giving it...

These two phenomenal specimens are sterile as a bucket of bleach....

I need to get my Silkie eggs into lock down, but in order to do that I need to move the JG eggs into the other bator. For some reason I am put the move off. But time is running out, and I need to get it done.

It's also time to candle the JG eggs.

Here's hoping that something is growing.

But it was really nothing. Just wish it was more but I had such a limited supply this year.

To CR; I want to talk to you about bees, while I was at the show. I got so distracted that I never got the time. I really think I want a hive or two. I just don't have a spare 800.00 or so to spend on bees. So I was hoping for some tips on managing bees on a budget.

beautiful birds, sorry they arent reproducing for you, I will keep an eye on this one and see if she ever has any problems but I am going to say she wont. baytril has been used in many breeding animals and thats the first I have ever heard it blamed for sterility. but I am no vet so will just have to play it by ear.

Jen think I should do a water antibiotic?
I have several.....let me go see what I have & list them & see which would be good.

I have found that Blue Kote works very well. I have a cream colored EE that is still very purple from when the nasty little dogs pulled out all the feathers on her back. That was why I finally got new homes for the nasty little puppies. It is rather quite around here with just 2 nasty little dogs. But at least we will have puppies in mid January. With Blue Kote because it turns the bird purple, the other birds don't continue to peck at the injured bird.

Betadine and Blu-kote are what I used on Roz after the eagle attack. She never needed anything else.
