George,
good to see you are still around. My old Sebright Dovey is 9 years old
and still full of #### and vinegar - and a big baby at that. The
youngest one, Lamar, scalped my Silkie-mix, Milkweed real good, but with
the help of peroxide, woundkote, Blu-kote, and a bit of alum, Milkweed
healed up and is now fostering two red sex-links pullets not much
younger than he is. I am in the midst of swapping cages and have a hen
and three pullets ready to go outside. Milkweed's two girls may go out a
month later. He is so good to them, I hate to split them up, but I have
two other old girls he can be with. Walter is pretty good with whoever
she is put with, but Merry is another story. Merry is too little even
for a decent pot of chicken soup, and Walter loves her little friend.
Guess Merry stays. :-)
