Chicken Devil




It's rather unfortunate that Penguin has some new feathers growing on his head that look like horns.

Combined with his bushy eyebrows, he looks like a devil, or what a chicken devil would look like! He's got that evil stare going on doesn't he?

Too funny to resist, had to share photos of him and his evil look.




That "look" 

He did not want to play ball with the camera today. Most of the time he refused to look straight on at the lens. Usually he doesn't care.

Those eyebrows sure are growing back!


His beard is also starting to take shape again.



That's all for this post, just had to share these "devilishly" awesome photos with all. Those horns will not last long!

Ivermectin for chickens

So on some chicken forums I've heard that people are using Ivermectin "off-label" to treat their poultry for parasites (such as mites and lice) and they recommend an egg witholding period of 7 days. It's off-label as there have been very few studies looking at the metabolism of this drug through avians. In December last year, there has been one scientific study done on Ivermectin and poultry. So is there a clear answer to it's safety in poultry and more importantly, how long before you can eat the eggs?

Poultry Lice Treatment - Pyrethrum bath

I bet not many of you can't boast that you gave chickens a bath on the weekend! I had, by far, the best answer to "what did you get up to this weekend?" at work today. Anyway, let's wind back a bit. It was a gloriously hot spring weekend and it was time for me to get on top of the poultry lice on my chickens. I've been regularly dusting them with poultry dust, but it wasn't having much of an effect. So when a hot weekend was forecast, it was time for a two pronged attack. Bathe the chickens to get rid of the lice and a spring clean of the coop.

Egg cuticles - The outermost layer of the eggshell

Weyhey! Welcome to a new section. I'll be utilising my several years of higher education in bringing to you information on chickens, sourced from research articles. I never knew there was a journal of British Poultry Science! So why research articles and not books? Well, articles go through a peer review process before publication. Yes, I've felt the pain of submitting an article, only for it to be rejected, the pain of reviewers asking for more tests, more corrections and data. All requested by people who work in the field and try and improve the quality of the article.  I've contributed to book chapters, but the one's I have done are basically a review of the current published literature. I'm not so sure about stand alone books, does it just get reviewed by the editor? I mean, there are some books out there that just give bad information (anyone remember that paleo diet cookbook that got pulled from the shelves?) . Anyway, I'll talk about a topic I fi...
