HA! Sorry. I havent' been on here in forever. I was trying to reply to a message someone posted about a rooster for sale that I had last year. Apparently I made a new post instead of replying to theirs.
Yes I agree raw is the best for so many reasons. Fortunately there is a place close by here that sells it. It is expensive though. I'm going to try goat milk this fall when my goat kids. Not sure that I'll like it but my little girl LOVES goat milk. Go figure!
I just got two goats and plan to try milking. They are a lot of fun.. On another note.... I went outside today to find my cat chasing this what appears to be day old chick. I saved it. Looks like an EE which I have EE hens.. I can't figure out where it came from. I'm not missing any hens, no...
True.
true. I also have a friend getting ready to place a hatchery order. We will see. They r just mixed bantam eggs I just really wanted to see what they were going to look like. I have a frizzle rooster. There is real 'cute' potential. :). So day ten u think to look for movement?
Oh hatching friends I have an age old question. My broody was kicked off her nest while I was at work today. She's nearly a week into the process. She was locked out and it could have been up to five hours. She's back on the nest now. Think there is any chance those eggs will make it? It...

I apologize for repeating if someone has already posted this link.
I believe the necropsy includes toxicology as well.
Yes my vet contacted purdue for me and they were able to do the necropsy at no charge. I did end up spending about $100 at the vet for the visit which included exam, Xrays, and ultimately euthanasia. I'm not sure why they gave me this deal, but my vet handled all of it. Euthanized the poor...
Sally - what age are you going to put them outside? I've never had chicks this time of year.
My duckling has tripled in size I think in a week and a half. I wonder when I can safely put him out in the yard....
Why did it have to get so cold!!
Heck I remember that from when I had my kids. I never tried it though. I did do the 'draino test' during my first pregnancy about ten years ago. I can't remember if it came out right but I remember the smell was horrible. lol Pretty sure that one won't work with chickens ;)
Sally - that...
They are doing great. One looks just like a buff brahma hen only the feathering on her legs is a bit scarce. She is a pretty girl. The other two look just like your hen but I am pretty sure one of mine is a boy. Pretty big comb and wattles already. And Skeeter, the sebright silkie cross...
Well as I was searching for ducks to replace the two I lost I discovered welsh harlequin ducks. I want them! Sweet, docile, and adorable AND they lay a ton of eggs. Anyone familiar with or have these lil duckies?
