Health Tips:
Tip #1 - When using Aureomycin products to treat your birds,
you should always take away grit as well as any feed or supplement containing
calcium.
Tip #2 - Birds will be sick and you may not know it until it
is too late. Send in their droppings and we will analyze them and
tell you if there is a problem. Do it before breeding at least.
Pinpointing the problem could save you money by targeting the problem and
selecting the proper treatment. I do it every month. Call Jerry
for more informaiton.
Tip #3 - If your birds don't eat all of their feed in 15 - 20
minuets, you are feeding them too much. Cut back on the amount until
all of the feed is consumed in 15 - 20 minuets. This will keep any
feed from being left over and also prevent spoilage.
Tip #4 - Change your water every day, especially if it contains
medications, vitamins or probiotics.
Tip #5 - A dry loft, well ventilated with lots of light will
do more good than preventative medications alone.
