I have been adding in black oil sunflower seeds to add extra protein and fat. The ladies love it and are eating it up.


JVLS: I got my seramas from the ladies in winter... They are... Unique People... I took my 7 year old with me on a visit and walked into their house and was frustrated that they smoked and had almost 300 chicks hatched in their basement. It wasn't cruel or anything, just odd. All the chickens lived together in yard and they bought most of their eggs from other breeders and hatched them out, whatever they didn't sell went into the coop and they sold them off as well.

A little odd process, but they were not pleasant people to talk with.

I do not know them, but I do know of them. a friend of mine was at their place also .. same story as you.. not the most pleasant pair of women.. He was P O"d because he called ahead and they said they had what he wanted, and then when he drove the 200 mile trip, it was not so..

I am using eprinex. Hopefully it works! Its expensive enough. My mom's chickens had mites and I told her to put .5 cc on each chicken. Both of them died. She told me yesterday she put 5 cc's on them! They were sick chickens she had in the house waiting to die anyway, but don't put 5 cc's on any of your birds please.

How sad!

X2 Oh and if I'm not mistaken I think the ivermectin pour on is 1/4 cc for a bantam?? I really don't measure any more, haven't lost any birds to it but I'm sure I haven't ever put on 5cc's. I don't like using the Point ie .5 etc. I like to spell it out Quarter of a cc, Half a cc etc.
Lots of people have been overdosed for similar mistakes. She shouldn't feel bad, things like that happen to the best of us.

Well,,,I wasnt going to bring this up but I will. This summer I was babysitting for my son and daughter in law's cats and dogs. One of the cats needs insulin shot 2X a day. I had a massive toothache and had no medicine for it. I am saying excruciating pain. My dentist wont give meany pills.

Had to wait a month for the dentis to pull.t. So,,, I took 1/4 of one of my dog's pain pills. I figure the dog is a lot smaller than me right? Big mistake, totally knocked me out.

I got up the next morning at 6 am and gave Carl his shot of insulin. I was supposed to give him 3 1/2 units and instead I gave him 35 units. I just read it wrong. He almost died.

Luckily he lived and after a couple months the kids started to talk to me again.


OK I am gonna shut up now.

I think I got type ~ itis

Talk about nightmares, the other night I dreamt of my exboyfriend. For the life of me I can't remember now what it was about but for the whole day I kept thinking about my dream. They are so so real. DH doesn't need to worry, the Ex passed away 11 days before I married DH. There was a snowstorm the day of the funeral, DH drove me to it.

That was for real not the dream. I think I dreamt about him because his son is a friend of mine on facebook. Weird dreams though let me tell ya. I have all kinds. I actually try to go back to sleep to finish my dreams !!!! TG I don't have haunting scary ones !!!

Fish Fry Friday All... Tonight it's deep fried Talipia with ho-made frys and fresh cole slaw made with fresh cabbage and carrots.

Nope i never test my venzun meat for anything other than cooked to perfection..... glad you enjoy the ho-made italian sausage Jim.

It's so easy to dust the birds with 5% sevin. Never a problem, only vermin free birds. sprinkle some in their dusting holes and it's a done deal. I've never had any lice or mites

must be the sevin.

Wish you were closer cind. I'm gonna have to deal with my row of beets. Suzie said she might can them in qts and see who wants some. Good thing i only did one row this year. Prolly at least a bushel.

KNA... I bought boss last year for $6.50 per 30 lbs. Ain't gonna happen this year prolly.

Threw a truck load of hickory in the basement today. I'm gonna have to start cutting for next year too Doc. I was 3 years ahead. I'm on my last year and need to get going for next season. That was really nice having that much piled up....ahhhh the good ol days!

Later... bigz
