gazzagerkin Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 one of our 3 hens is on anti biotics ,its hard to tell the difference between all our hens eggs have been told to discard the eggs from the drugged hen for 21 days ,as we cant tell the difference this means no eggs at all for 3 weeks seems as shame to throw 50 eggs away why cant you eat eggs with the hen on anti bocs?

LuckyChickenLover- Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 If the antibiotics are in her system, they could be transfered into her eggs and then transfered into you if you eat them. It does seem a shame to waste 50 eggs . Is there any way you could isolate her for a few minutes while she lays her egg? LCL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken bark Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 I agree - I'd try to isolate her if you can or at least watch her tomorrow so you know what egg is hers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
