Chortle Chook Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Thanks Olly that is a good read. I so wish there were chicken medicines around in quantities that did not involve our vet in getting out her calculator and then asking the receptionist if she has the dosage right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackian Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I agree I thought the article it said it all..I have no vet near me that has a clue .The nearest chicken vet specialist to me is at least 20 miles away in Wendover. I have learnt every thing I know from sites like this .There are some knowledgable chicken owners out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charly1979 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Jackian There may be vets closer to you, I had a look on the site and it said our closest was Shepton but the one in Bath wasnt listed ? I know they are chicken speacilists as my neighbour took hers there after a dog attack and without TMI the chicken was at deaths door yet 'Fat Pam' as I beleive her name to be is fully fit now, plus more of the vets are starting to specialise in poultry due to the numbers of chicken owners my own vets expiernce and knowlegde has grown in th time I have been using them ...
