Sitting with a cup of coffee. (coffee lovers)

Thank you Teachick

(and everyone else too!)
Nothing new except there was a little improvement in her eyes but the vet is still concerned about the inflamation and developing into glaucoma and leaving her permanently blind so she upped the eyedrops to prednesone. She should be on steroids but we can't until we know for sure whether on not for sure on the blastomycosis. Steroids actually can increase it. So it's still a waiting game. The results on the Blast test won't be back till Friday and we have another appointment then. No idea where we go from there yet if it's negative.

There is some good news like she is seeing a bit better, the pressure in her eyes hasn't went up and the mass on the side of her head shrunk a bit. Her fever is also down a couple points and tho she still tires way too easy she does seem to be feeling better and and back to more of her happy little self, even played a bit in the yard - tho she kept giving the vet tech the stink eye!

We still have no clue what we are dealing with and whether it's a game ender or one we can win so I am super grateful for any small victory.

Glad to hear that she's feeling a bit better. Any idea what the mass consists of? Is it just fluids, or something else? Did the vet biopsy it?

Good morning all! Coffee with 2 pips this morning. I have 9 mixed banty eggs due today. Kids will get egg watch fun while I am at work.

This round are all barnyard bany mixes from a co-workers birds. Friday I have 44 eggs due with silkie, White face black Spanish, Phoenix LF, Buttercup banty, and a few more barnyard banties. Then I have 3 orp mixes due Monday. They were shipped and not sure if they will make it or not. Shells are dark and I can't see very well.

She is getting a couple but most will go to 4H kids that want them. I get to keep the pic of the hatch of course. Perks of hatching.

I gave my old English game bantam four eggs yesterday, if any hatch this will be funny, two silkie eggs and two buff brahma large fowl
the coffee is great today !
I voted on the Missouri farm amendment today, I hope the correct side wins.

Most of the voters tend to think it does.
