Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Are you serious? He was going to ship birds with pox?

Glad your hen is doing better.

I think you got the drugs pretty well covered! If it can't be fixed with some combo of Baytril, metronidazole, amoxicillin, it's probably time to see a vet and have a culture done.

PS love the IV bag!!! I dream of the day when I can hold and spike a bag again.....

oh! I ordered baytril, water soluble and injectable, never had baytril unless the vet prescribed it to me. Also finzole and amoxicillin pills.

I don't think the Pond filtration system was functioning properly last night. I cleaned out a bunch of unusual sludge, and it appears to be fine so far today.

Blame it on Holiday over-indulgence!

You didn't happen to fling it all around Willy nilly did you? Might explain how some got into the NFC chat.

I tried to be careful, but apparently some of it slid in that direction.

Not what you said last night.

There's been a Pond overflow. Sludge is trickling into the NFC birthday chat.

The mayo overflowed into the pond, so the sludge had to funnel back.

I am dead serious!!! We are desperate for good white birds here and the breeder he got them from is one of the top 5 in the nation. He said he got them from him a couple months ago and verified purchase price. He got cold with me when I asked him about weight and fertility. When my breeder asked for pics, he sent them and she asked "Is that fowl pox" and he said he took them back from his friend because he didn't pay him and they weren't in good condition... so she asked him again "is that fowl pox"????? and after an hour to reply he said "Maybe-I'm not sure-my friend didnt take good care of them though"!!!!!

I'll just call you when I need some drugs.

@everyone, fear not, pigeon supply houses will still have *all* of this stuff available without a prescription.
