Thanks for sharing

Yes and No - There is a lot of grey area in that ... It really depends on YOU as a Breeder and your BIRD as a breeder - I have been told ( so probably a load of bollocks ) that some breeders still breed Hens at 6 years old - But yes 3 - 4 years of breeding at 2 - 3 clutches per year - If your Hen is in TOP FORM and TOP HEALTH with NO complication to raising bubs or to her self then 4 - 5 Years OLD is fine So i have been told :yellowhead: -( double check with more Experienced breeders though ) But the Fertility rates drop - hatch-ability levels get lowered ...They become more bored in a Nest box so any chick that do hatch are prone to being neglected or picked on So When you add them up it isn't worth the risk to breed over 4 years old - UNLESS SHE IS A SUPREME CHAMPION HEN then in that case I HAVE FIRST DIBS

That is what i do , and I ask here hehehehe

Looking forward to seeing the piccs

Awww how did you loose your voice! Or shouldn't I ask :hap: heheheh I can't wait to see the photos kaz I am bursting with excitement :hap:

YAY!!!! I can just see your face full of excitement mate !! Well done ..... did you just put it back or was it breathing and etc when you put it back :hap:

She seems on the OLD side of breeding to me though

Breed TCB hen to Ino cock Or a Normal Split to ino :hap: You should get at least one out of the clutch

Weird for sure - Could be like Elly said a nesting thing especailly since she has take a liking to your clothes :hap: Good luck with the vets mate please let us know what they say I would be interested to see what they have to say - And yes keep warmth on her :hap:

:hap:

Fantastic to hear Matt. I am truely glad that you seek medical attention and look at the result :hap: Was she a new bird?

The thing is JoEl apparently our birds in W.A. are rubbish compared to where you are or so "a member" on here has told us. Show me some of your birds. I might learn something. :hap: :hap: :hap: :hap: :hap: :hap: :hap: :hap: You're kidding aren't you !!!! okay what has happen with this forum the last week - All these KIDS don't seem to know their MANNERS - or Use Spell Check - All good for Newbies to ask for advise and help and etc BUT TO TELL US WHAT TO DO is really GETTING ON MY NERVES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE FACT THAT MEMBERS BIRDS ARE DYING AFTER BEING TOLD TO QUARANTINE! AND NOT LISTENING! MEMBERS BIRDS ARE SICK YET CAN'T AFFORD VET COSTS I AM AT MY TEATHER! DON"T OWN PETS IF YOU CAN NOT AFFORD THEM! QUARANTINE NEW BIRDS TO SAVE YOUR CURRENT FLOCKS! AND FOR PEAT SAKE STOP IGNORING STAFF MEMBERS WARNINGS! AND RE READ WHAT YOU WRITE BEFORE YOU POST IT !!! I HATE SEEING STAFF HAVING TO CONSTANTLY EDIT POST FOR THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN!! okay i am vented

How did you go ? Are they all clear ???

So how did it go ???Is she better after the Meds?How did the vet confirm it was caker???

Deb I think you have a Soft food Junkie on your hands - I honestly do not see any issues with her having a lite suppa before bed of night -But it makes more work for you .... See what the others thinks - When i said the vet it wasn't for her health mate I thought they should have a few ideas I wish you luck

OMG!! How funny was those post !!! I could just see Jodie runnign through the factory to Would be nice to find out what the book was and how he looked !!

I am thinking that the vet says it is cancer due to the fact of him ( the bird not the vet ) holding the one leg .. But I would say a Tumor of the Kidneys as he has watery poos and the tumor is putting pressure onto the siatic nerve .. Best to get some test done ... I am not a Qualified Vet to say this - It is only my opinion from a lot of research that i did with illness and dieases .....

okay I skimmed through that Has good and bad points - But , I am happy with the way i do things Good read though :nest:

Maes well done for posting the links to the aviaries * I was too lazy to

seat

Hello and Welcome - It's the season for molting now I have a few that are going through it too ... I agree with Kaz - Would be awesome to see a picture Plenty of Warmth and fresh fruit and Vegs as molting can take a lot out of a bird, and they need all the good stuff to help bring out the new feathers so to speak ..

Ooooo Not long now ...... I bet you can't wait I know i can't

Probotics are FANTASTIC for Sick birds - for Use with breeding pairs around the 1 week mark before eggs are due to hatch . and for the Nursery birds Do not use probotics whilst giving bird antibiotics as it cancels out the antiboitics

okay ...So you are weaning Roxy? And she is BOYCOTTING ???---- Good Idea MB - ----Deb - We know that you wouldn't do anything to harm Roxy !!!!!!!You have done everything that members have told you , and she stilldoesn't want to let go eh?Have you asked an Avian vet?? To see what they think?
