Remember that cherry leaves and bark are poisonous.

Roosters often don't do well on lay feed due to the high calcium and protein. It can cause kidney failure. This might be a good preventative measure to take, for hens and roosters.

I recently had a good discussion with a vet at our state lab and he told me several conditions that can cause peritonitis. Some of it I hadn't heard before so I thought I'd share it here.

(For those of you who don't know what this is, I'll try to describe it to the best of my ability.

Chicken wire is not secure for keeping out any predators-especially on any type of moveable tractors ect. Maybe it's ok to keep out hawks as top cover of pen run, but not against racoons climbing. Chicken wire is meant to keep chickens in and not to keep out predators. So if you have a welded wire pen with a chicken wire cage within, that's probably okay if you... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (AmethestEagle) http://backyardchickens.yuku.com/topic/6678 Wed, 15 Jun 2005 08:10:53 GMT <![CDATA[ Shipping boxes link ]]> http://backyardchickens.yuku.com/topic/6698/t/Shipping-boxes-link.html www.hm-e.net/
