How Quickly Does Albendazole Work?

[Janty]

Yes, you've guessed it.

 

 

Shankly III has crowed. I was saying to Palmer07 the other week that she had very manly legs (the chicken, not Palmer07) and the stance was very man-like. Well, at 6.30 this morning he came out and declared his man-hood.

 

He is going back to the breeder tomorrow and I think that we will be avoiding Shetland crossbreeds altogether now. She said that she has a lot of birds around the same age so I am hoping for a nice barbe d'uccle, preferably a mille fleur, or something. To be honest as long as it's a lady, I don't care.

 

My son wants to eat Shankly. What can I say? He's a deprived child...never fed!

[Ms Tilytinkle]

tee hee poor deprived child!! Like mine - never fed, never has anything & I ruin her life!!!

 

Poor Shankly III, hope he doesn't feel too conscientious & rejected , especially after coming out and declaring his manhood & all!

Oh dear, what a shame, tricky to tell obviously, I bet the breeder will be staying clear from now on too

[Janty]

When we looked at the birds originally and compared them, you would have sworn that Shankly was a pullet. They do seem to be very difficult to sex.

[Snowy]

Oh dear Janty I'm sorry, but you were obviously destined to have cockerels Just give in gracefully!

[Janty]

The neighbours did think it was a crow rather than a chicken.

[Falkor]

oooh Jan .....you are destined to have a chap!

 

Glas you pointed out that it was the chook and not me with the stocky legs!

 

Oooh Mille fluer! Mille Fluer!!!!!!!!

 

 

Fingers crossed that the duckys are ALL ladies........nature has to balance it out at some point!

[Janty]

I wouldn't mind a male duck, just one mind you.

 

[ClaireG]

Oh no

[Janty]

Never mind...the family have banned me from calling the next one Shankly IV.

The replacement will be called Dalglish.

[Chook n Boo Mum]

Maybe that's it, you jinxed the bird as they all had the same name...Dalglish isn't very feminine though is it

 

Good luck with the next one

[Janty]

Thanks

 

[Space Chick]

But Dalglish is a legend so I good strong name

 

Sorry about the latest Shankly

[Ms Tilytinkle]

Legend in their time .. .

 

What about Wenger . . . or Busby . . Clough or Robson being fond of the titles, you could then name them Ms Busby (just to make sure)

 

Good Cluck

Who?!!!

 

[Janty]

Hubby says we could only call the next one Wenger if it was destined for the pot.

 

[Egluntyne]

I'm sure it was the name that was doing it.

 

Sorry Janty.

Well, we exchanged Shankly III for a LF Australorp and the breeder gave us the last of her blue bearded silkies as I fell in love with the little sweetie. I was carrying it around and she said that she wouldn't sell it as she had had so many problems sexing the silkies as she had with the blue egg layers and she knew that I wanted girls only. We got talking and the upshot is that I took it on the understanding that if it is a boy then I will rehome him. I am sure that I wouldn't have any problems rehoming such a gorgeous bird if the need arose.

 

We have called the Australorp Dalglish and we have named the little silkie Nessie after Bill Shankly's wife.

 

They have all settled in well with the little Vorwerk, Rafa Henitas and they all toddled off to bed together tonight. It was quite sweet really. I popped my head into the eglu to see them and Rafa and Nessie were all snuggled into Dalglish. Ahhhhhh!

 

I will post piccies tomorrow.
