Well that sounds wonderful! And, it gives me some time to find someone with Delaware eggs too. Thank you again!

I'm sorry you had to cull all of them. I'm not sure i would have done that unless they started showing signs. However if it's what you thought was best for you so be it.

Thanks Jolyn. The main reason was because I know I mixed them too soon and my girls although did not seem as bad as the boys I did not want to take the chance of having any of whatever it was around my house at all! Especially since I want to "re-build" now and start over. It would be all for nothing to start over and whatever they had crept back up somewhere and I would have to do this all over again! Too everyone out there, please be careful when bringing home new birds.. I lacked the knowledge of proper Biosecurity and learned the hard way.

you did it! alright! you are a true country girl now! go chicken farmer!

you have been a good example of how to take care of your flock and practice good husbandry.

hope you end up with a great flock soon!

I respect you for making a decision on what you thought was right and following through. I am sure it wasnt the easiest thing! But you stuck with it.

Thanks everyone! Well, now I need to concentrate on Dis-infecting the coop and everything the birds came in contact with, and then I will try and find other hatching Eggs to go along with Speckledhens! BYC members, you guys are great! Thanks for the support. I am going out now to have a beer now. Ciao!

Today was a long Day of Disinfecting the Coop and every little thing my birds came into contact with! Let me tell you.. That took all Day! I used a Bleach solution inside of my Power Washer and Power washed everything until it was spotless! Then I took buckets of bleach water and soaked the coop down with it all! Cleaned all Feed trays and waterer's... now I am Pooped! My arms feel like Rubber.. Well, I had some time to look at the Diseases one more time online to see what closely fit my birds.. At first I thought CRD, but now I have discovered ILT and I think that fits my birds symptoms the best. Poor babies, I miss them so much and that Big empty coop outside sure is Depressing..
