I bought five chicks from fabulous feathered silkies business, the owner's name is d a w n e c u l l e n. She sold me sick chicks two died and the rest of my flock is now infected with disease. I have spent over $500 trying to remedy the situation. I have since learned that she has been running a chicken meal for several years and nothing has been done to shut her down. She's still on Facebook, she is still on Google, she is everywhere. Recently she's been harassing me in text messages. I have documentation of everything. I have been to her place and seen the horrid conditions that the chickens are living in. She keeps her chickens screwed in to the coops and never lets them out. They are starving and dehydrated and have no water. I have pictures. Can you please do something about this? It's disgusting, it's gross, it's sad, and because she is selling sick chickens a lot of us who have flocks are in serious jeopardy had I'd known that she had this reputation I never would have bought from her. I'm a new chicken owner so I was not aware. But I am now!

Hi, thank you following up with me, i received the lab results with the types of sickness the chickens have. I can undoubtedly say the sickness running through my entire flock originated with her chicks that i bought on May 3rd. I say this because ALL of the other chickens I have are homegrown, have never been off property, and had never shown any sickness signs until a week or so after I brought these chicks home. I sequestered them but some of this bacteria is passed in the air.
the vet says they have mycoplasma (carriers for life, doesn't kill them, which means I can NEVER sell ANY of my chickens to anyone now) and Acinobacter.
When I get the lab results I'll forward to you. there are also plenty of statements made by SO many people ince 2017, complete with vet results on backyard chickens website.
