    Unbalanced 17 day old kit

    Kit looks just as healthy as the other kits now at 4 weeks. Just a wee bit of a head tilt. Day 12 of a tiny amount of fenben to kit and pea size to mama. I'm uncertain if I should rebred mama doe. She has no symptoms, never did.

    Brand new

    Welcome. We homeschooled all the way through with 3 kids, (all grown up now). The kids had a blast with chickens , incorporating farm chores with school. We had very few issues, so long as our coup was secure and we learned basic chicken diseases and dealt with them proactively. We just started...

    Favorites?

    Our favorites are just swapping out any chicken for rabbit casserole dishes. We've had it many other ways on it's own and it's not fatty as I'm use to. Marinating it it Chiavettas bbq marinade is quite tasty though on the grill.

    Unbalanced 17 day old kit

    I started the wet tail drops. 16 gtts, (according to pkg.) morning and night, but was super difficult to get kit to take it. So by day 3 i stopped and started just a wee bit of Fen Ben. This morning i can hardly tell the kits apart. One eye is slightly squinted, but is looking so much better. Thxs.

    Not new, but returning!

    I'm learning alot about great characteristic traits when I view your pictures. That's something I know little about. My only yeah, is if I get over a 5lb on processing day! Excellent record keeping! I'm inspiring to be more like that.

    Unbalanced 17 day old kit

    Thank you I do have a 13 sec. Video above. I will post another if the kit changes. Does Fenben come through the mothers milk, and if so then doesnt all the kits get the antiparisitic?

    Thank you the reply. I will try to look for the wet tail drops. I was able to get safe-guard equine paste. 25 gram paste 10% 100mg/g. Momma is 8.0 lbs . At 20mg per kg. How much of the paste should I give her? Pictures of momma

    Urgent Advice Needed

    I wanted to clarify we brought everything home that day except the grow out cages because they needed to wait till the growouts were ready. We went a few weeks later to help process then took the rest. The fact that they had a recent kiddling of 16 kits with the two does was evidence that it was...

    2 Does kindled small litter, how to best proceed?

    Thank you One doe had 2, other doe had 1. I fostered the one kit to the doe who had two. All is well and everyone is doing great at 25 degrees this morning. I will rebreed both does at weaning time. How will I know if it's the does or the buck? Both does are sisters. Does are 4 years. Buck is...

    2 Does kindled small litter, how to best proceed?

    I've decided to put the day old chubby one into the massive fur nest with the two small 4 day old ones, as this probably will keep them warmer tonight in the 20's Praying there is no rejection. I need to sleep all night and not be up warming kits in the middle of the night
