It has been one of those days around here, hasn't it?

Terri, so sorry about your bird. That is so sad. Poor Buddy.

I agree also about having your DD getting & unloading the hay for her horses. That is the least she could do if you're housing & feeding & caring for them. She could get some friends to help her & probably have it done in no time.
MLH & Jim, congrats on the popcorn, I mean quail!

Tom, glad you could rejoin us. There will be a quiz tomorrow about the last 300 pages.

DrH, sorry to hear about Brownie. My PRs did the exact same thing. Bred for production & that's about it.

My last PR, Priscilla Poultry, just turned 3 & is currently in the "hospital ward". She's been off her feed, so she's getting extra attention, treats & lots of vitamins. She has been like this once before & bounced back, so we shall see.

Wow, DAS, those are some beautiful birds you have there!

Cind, I think Jim was the one who was wanting a BR roo.

Raim, congrats on the cute lil quackers!

Welcome to the Cheesehead thread, farriersgirl! Glad you like our thread. Hope you can visit often. Which area of the state are you from?

Bf4, you've got more sick ones????? We were just e-mailing not that long ago. Oh no!!!! You poor gal. Did you hear from Dawg?
She had these chicks out in her new coop, most likely on pine shavings. The one she had that died last week was in the basement brooder.

FG! You need to get on here more often or get left in the dust! These people talk ALL day long!!!!!

What kind of ducks do you have???

All newbies! Please check out the Bash thread and join us!!!!

Yes CC... Found another one for sure, and think there are more. I just went and got poly by sol. I am feeding sulmet and Sav a chik by syringe. I don't know WHAT I'm going to see come morning!!!! You guys know what I want to say right now... f- - k!!!!

CC thanks, I love showing off my birds. The reason I ask about the bedding is that over the years we have had some pine shavings that have an overpowering smell to them. It doesn't seem to bother the adults too much. But the chicks can't tolerate it. It could also be mold in the food or bedding. And for those of you who only like puppies all I have to say is this

Bf4, if you are feeding them medicated chick starter, giving them amprollium will not help. That is the medication already in the feed & will do nothing to help.

You got the "no iron" formula, right? Are they all on the Sulmet combo? It would be a good idea.
I'm not sure what they might have, but I'll keep researching. What are all the symptoms? You mentioned 1 or 2 here that wasn't in your e-mail.
Be strong, woman. You will be ok.
We're all here for you.
