I really hope this warm season has a lot of thunderstorms like 2019. There haven't been great ones recently here.

I know it's cold air damming but the air coming from the east isn't cold. I could understand it when there is precip colling the column but today it has been dry and we still got stuck around 48 degrees. Honestly January hasn't been a torch here at all and it has been right about average. The lows have been a couple degrees above average. Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow.

MR.SNOWMIZER Posted January 15, 2023 Report Share Posted January 15, 2023 Does anyone have experience with chickens? My rooster is acting like he is drunk, stumbling around and even falling. Hens are fine, water and food look clean. I don't see a ear infection and no sign of injury. Only thing I can think of is maybe vitamin deficiency so I crushed up a couple vitamin c pills and a vitamin E and D and put that in there water. He is eating and drinking, very strange. 1 Quote We come from the land of the ice and snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
