    Oh okay. I hadn't paid attention to the date. That does seem odd then that we can't delete/edit our own comments like we can on posts/replies. Probably for a reason we'll never know. :) I've seen a moderator delete a comment though for someone else requesting it when they had suggested...

    Chiggers-- Permethrin? Sevin? Or something else

    Yes, permethrin will kill chiggers, and I'd get that as it's also good for mites and lice so probably good to have on hand anyway, plus it's pretty inexpensive. FSL works like DE, slow. They are both considered more of a prevention. We use DE in our coops, and FSL down by the creek to kill...

    Vent gleet?

    Hi, Does it have a bad odor to it, different from their poop? If it does, it'd help confirm it is Vent Gleet. If so, you can buy some generic Monistat (drug stores and convenience stores sell it) and after bathing and patting dry her tush, slather that on and around her vent. You can squeeze...

    You're very welcome. I hope that one's okay and the rest hatch great for you!

    I may be wrong, but the option should be there to delete it ourselves for a certain amount of time, and that's where I believe the PFM comes in.

    A difficult topic but well covered. Great links too. Will be helpful for anyone having a rough time with having to end the life or deal with the death of a beloved chicken.

    Very inspiring article and makes a person feel that they aren't the only one who mourns the loss of a chicken.

    Need advice! Yesterday an egg pipped a day early with small amounts of yellow ooze

    Hi, and welcome to BYC! :frow Your post is right where it belongs! Good job! I hatch a lot and have seen that before. That's like the gunk on the chicks sometimes, probably yolk. I'm not sure but I ignore it pretty much as I've seen it enough. The rule of thumb for assisting is if it's...

    Howdy, I'm new here and have some questions!

    I've done it at that age when the temps were the same as their brooder, but only for an hour the first couple of times, then brought them right back in. We have an indoor/outdoor doggy pen with a removable bottom and a screen that can be zipped on top, so it works well for them. It's also good...

    Hey, I wonder if we deleted what we wrote, if we'd get the reply option back?

    Nope, I've wanted to too. This is how a comment on one of mine looks. No way to do anything and I have a PFM as well as I know that does afford a few different perks, but not here. The Edit you see is a Staff thing in case I had to edit the person's comment, which we don't usually do anyway...

    Review by 'Debbie292d' in article 'Perfect waterer for cold weather'

    Great idea! It would help us out if you had a step by step of how you did this. Some of us would get all the parts and just shrug at what's the first thing to do.

    Please critique my coop

    You could always just put them in the run, then put a battery lantern inside the chicken door. They may just go in there on their own. 50/50 chance I'd guess. That works well when we're moving chickens from a growout pen to the coop for their first time. We have this down to a science. It...
