Wazine and egg hatchability/mutations

[colby318]

I just dosed the girls with wazine. I can't sell the eggs for 14 days for human consumption. So... can they hatch? I might as well try to make use of the eggs instead of tossing them. Is there a problem with viability or chance of mutations? Does anyone have any experience hatching or just conjecture.

You should not hatch or eat the eggs during this time . . . .

The medicine goes through the chicken to the embroyo . . .

Yes, but does it cause deformities?

 

[geebs]

It can... That would be profoundly sad.

Thank you. I just needed an answer one way or another.

I fed the eggs back to the chickens and dogs during that time. I can't stand to wasting the eggs. I scrambled the eggs for the group. I figured that it wasn't going to hurt any of the critters. I can also state that they are all still quite healthy.

Agree with u, you should keep them what they are during the special time.

I agree with the above post. If you feed the birds their own medicated eggs during the time of discard, you are re-introducing the wormer into the bird, and should extend the time you discard eggs to compensate for that. You shouldn't use them during that time, and no-one else should, either.

Good point.
