Liver troubles are often caused by over-feeding and lack of exercise. Give the affected fowls a good physic of some kind and follow with a liver tonic. Give a limited diet for a few days, and if possible induce the fowls to take a lot of exercise. If they are too far gone to scratch, better kill and burn their bodies. Unless a bird is very valuable there is not much profit doctoring thesick ones, which have to be fed with a spoon. Growing cockerels should now be separated from the pullets, and the former given an extra allowance of feed. They will need this additional amount more than will the pullets in order that they can be kept growing. All the old stock that is not wanted should now be disposed of before they go into molt Lighter foods are best these warm days. Heavy food like corn heats the blood. , Already the fowls are assuming a rusty appearance. * It is getting near their molting season.
