So far we have lost 4 of our new meat Chicks. We received the vet medicine yesterday and we're hoping this cures the bug. The remaining 36 birds seem to be healthy, eating well.
We had a mouse or some sort of critter nibbling on our acorn squash so I cut them through and fed them to the meat chicks. They enjoyed them, nothing but shell left when I checked on them later in the evening.
Even though we have hit this bump in the road as far as raising "organic chicken" is concerned and we have to feed them meds to cure this bug, they are still getting garden veggies, they will still be enjoying the sunshine in a few weeks time and they will still be happier healthier birds.
'til next time!
