...Donna, you going all "poetry" on us? :)<br /><br />Erin, I can't take credit for the "Creepy Meats", I believe it was Ohio Farm Girl who started it. <br /><br />Mary Ann, I'll have to look up Cocciodiosis; I've heard about it, but really don't know the symptoms. <br /><br />Mama Pea, you do have a point about everyone keeling over at once....really gives the homesteader a complex. And as for the creepy meats...their time is very limited.<br /><br />Tombstone, I think I'll try a NSJ. Although it doesn't have the same ring as "NSO".<br /><br />Kim, I put out some ACV just last night, hopefully it helps, even if only the healthier birds.<br /><br />Tiny, The Holidays are supposed to be about spending time with your FAMILY (or just significant other), there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with going out for dinner instead of slaving over the kitchen all day and spending buco bucks on food! As much as I enjoy the family togetherness, an occasional Holiday Dinner OUT sounds fantastic!! Enjoy :)<br /><br />Sandy, Yeah, I'm glad someone went and took care of him, although I do feel a bit guilty for not doing it myself sooner.<br /><br />Kelly, you've broken your blogging sabbatical?! I'll have to see if WNV has any particular symptoms or if I can see anything with an autopsy.<br /><br />Nancy, the $10 bag isn't "chicken" feed, it's just a 10% custom mix from the local feed store. I supplement with whey, milk, scraps, etc. to up the protein count. If I bought a "real" chicken crumbles, it's about $12.99.<br /><br />Candy, Wallace seemed perfectly fine & happy!!Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14436557172029575513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-54608408255218181812012-11-06T06:30:12.505-06:002012-11-06T06:30:12.505-06:00I hope you solve the dead chickie mystery, that ha...I hope you solve the dead chickie mystery, that has to be a bummer. Better get the Creepy Meats butchered soon or they will eat you out of house and home! Yikes!! I'm glad someone is taking care of Wallace. He doesn't look too concerned about his missing parts!

Chickens die from west nile virus! It's still warm and buggy here and I'm sure it's the same in MO. I hope you don't lose anymore birds and that it's not the west nile! <br />I'm still not blogging, and this is the first comment I have made in a week but I have been keeping up with everyones posts!

Hubby and I usually host Thanksgiving at our house, and since I generally hate all the food his family brings over, I end up making everything. And it gets pricey! BUT this year, we are GOING OUT. Yes, I know that totally contradicts everything the holiday is supposed to be about, but I don't care. Instead of spending 200-300 bucks on dinner and working my arse off for days, we get to spend 50 bucks and actually enjoy the day. Sounds like a win to me! <br /><br />Sorry about your chickens. As I consider myself a chicken novice still, I have no clue what is going on... <br /><br />Wallace the Community dog! Love him! If we had one of those in the city, I am sure it would be dead...

No matter how hard we try, $$$ seems to fly out of our wallets for one necessary thing or another. But certain times of the year make no spending easier than others. The holiday season is NOT one of those easy times!<br /><br />Sorry to hear of your chicken fatalities. There's probably no dread disease rampaging through your homestead. So often these things do seem to come in clumps, and then disappear ne'er to happen again. (Until the next time.) Especially with little chicks, ducklings, goslings, etc.<br /><br />Wallace has developed some bad habits (roaming) that will shorten his happy-go-lucky vagabond life. Hope somebody starts to take better care of him.<br /><br />Those creepy meats are becoming very expensive sources of homegrown dinners. Get thee (or them rather) to the butcher!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-49386975847215768372012-11-05T08:40:23.775-06:002012-11-05T08:40:23.775-06:00Cocciodiosis?????
