At about 10:30 this morning (October 24, 2015), in Oklahoma, a crowd of people congregated to watch the State University homecoming parade. Suddenly, a car struck a police motorcycle, then drove straight into the crowd. As a result of this, 3 people were killed and 34 others injured.
For birds that are laying large numbers of eggs, an easy and high calcium supplement is dried egg shell ground to a powder and added to their normal feed. Layer pellets are supplemented with calcium as well. Soft or thin shelled eggs may indicate calcium problems in your birds.
A chick starter feed should be fed to all chicks until they are 6 weeks of age. You can get this at your local feed store. After this time, feed them a pullet grower feed until about 20 weeks (25 weeks for heavy breeds like Cochins and Brahmas). Then they can be switched to a laying feed.or heat, be aware that chicks need 95 degrees for the first week. You can drop this by 5 degrees every week til they're 6 weeks old. Then they are fairly feathered out and unless you live in a very cold area, they are able to withstand normal temperatures.
