Morning all. And hopefully not many skeeters where you are!
Frenchie, you're not the only one who posts long! Seems I always have lot of uninteresting things to share...
Sorry to hear bout your chicken CL! Sometimes nature can be so cruel.
Duckies all doing good, pheasant babies not so much. After his brother loosing the 4 older chickens (we think due to the one cold night) and the younger two surviving we thought we're fine. Had 7 pheasant babies hatch. One died a bit later but the other ones seemed fine.
BUT since 3 days ago I'm really worried. Can pheasants get cocci? It seems like they're fine one day, the next one is really lethargic, not interested in food or water and later in the day it passes. We're down to 4 pheasant babies now (bout a week old now) and yet another one is doing just that.
Maybe the chickens had it and his brother brought it over? Never had this happen before. And any clues what I can do to help it NOT die? Sugar water and extra warmth added but don't seem to help
Ideas anyone?!
tball is back on. And 4-h is in high gear. Tons of chickies growing out. And mostly loving it! The bottle fed baby is finally eating all on his own! The chickens are well. I am selling some pairs of the blue Andalusion chicks. If anyone is interested. They hatched in January
She was a sweet little girl too. Soooooo..... I wound up giving Pepper all the eggs I had split between her and Jasmine. There was only a 2 day difference from when they were set, and I don't know how long the 2nd batch was cool, so they may not hatch anyway. She's a full size Cochin so she can cover a good size pile. Jasmine got the Marans eggs because she's a well proven broody and mom.
