If i stay in the throttle it's 50mpg. If i am easy and follow traffic laws it can get 70mpg.

Yup! according to my husband ( I overheard him talking to his Lieutenant), it's roughly 11 mpg but since most of the drive to work for him is 70mph, he says it's closer to 7. LOL

He wasn't pleased when I asked him how much it gets at 90mph. His LT looked at me like I had 3 heads. Then I just pretended to be texting someone so the awkward silence would pass quickly. Allegedly, his LT is "old skool" and didn't think it was funny. Even though I wasn't kidding. #brat
 
My truck only leaves the driveway when it's raining or when i need to haul something. Now that the wife has her new car the truck will be on the road as little as possible.

I don't blame you. I drive the truck everywhere only because DH's drive to work is 60 miles one way, the Hyundai is more practical for that. I'm sure it doesn't help that the Dodge's water pump needs to be replaced and I think it's a 2005(ish) with 150K+miles on it. Admittedly, because I have screwed up priorities, I'm more annoyed that I blew one of the speakers and have been nagging that I want new ones in it.

you're allowed to say poop here, that way there's no confusion LOL

some times brown runny poo isn't necessarily a bad thing, has this particular chick always had brown runny poo? Try some chick saver, probiotics in the water, and maybe some electrolytes. Or give some yogurt as a treat.

I have 2 of my 14 chickens that have brown runny poo and always have had. Today I drained the water barrel and mixed some wormer (wazine) in the water bucket and hung in the run for them for tomorrow. It could be worms, and worming is something you'll want to do as a regular "routine maintenance" type thing.

Go up to the search bar at the top of the page, and type in 'brown runny poop' and you will learn more about chicken poop than you really ever wanted to know. Here's one thing my grandmother taught us as kids when she asked us "do you know what the white is on the top of the pile of chicken poop"?





"no grandma, what is the white stuff on the top of the chicken poop"






It's chicken poop too..............

wow, I get more than that pulling my camper with my dodge, and it has the big hemi in it.........last weekend, pulling the camper to the lake, the overhead console showed I got 12.2 MPG. Just around town I get between 15-16, out on the highway I'm cruising and showing 18+, which to me is tolerable. Now the LAST doge I had, the 95 model, I got 8 or 9 pulling the camper and between 11 and 12 normal driving.


Of course, "normal" driving is subjective..............

oh, how's the chicken run progressing?
 
My kids recognize 'stress poo' instantly

If something upsetting has happened we can always tell by the poo in a coop. Usually it's a predator scoping them out without us seeing anything but tracks later. Sometimes the weedeater but they've sort of gotten used to that. I'd go with the last advice given. No need to 'stress' yet

yes medicated feed wpuld be better and if she will eat a little flour with it together ot will slow her stomach down she is getting protein to fast and it upsetting her stomach

Why do you say medicated is better? Honestly, over the years I have used both, and have seen absolutely no difference in the occurrence of coccidiosis. Doesn't seem to help at all. And if the person is putting the bird on medication, medicated feed would unbalance the dosages.
