Shortcut Lofts

Dont seem to have a problem with pieds but reds and mealys - no chance. Dont know why but i cant hold these at all wether is hawks or what?? Had a pair of mealy dordins and they threw mealys and blues, guess what, the blues raced well and were always there and every mealy dissappeared. Coincidence? Also any reds i had always dissapear for some reason.

Very happy you like the bird mate. All the very best with her. Eamon

IMO - cider vinegar is not good for Ybs in the nest as it is hard on the crop, especially with scaldies. I give them Gemthepax over the corn twice a week and it works great. It is OK to give them cider vinegar when weaned, i give it 2 times a week from they are weaned and throughout the whole season. I used to give SMA baby powder also but went off it although it has everything they need. SL

IMO Coppi cock, Parkside Superman, The Crayonne, Barney. SL

Thanks AJ nice talking to you. Hope the white hen does well for you. Eamon.
