Good Morning All-
I went to the doctors, and I have pneumonia. No surprise there- I have been so sick, and the cough about kills me. My muscles are so SORE from coughing. Got antibiotics and an inhaler. Hope it helps fast.
Two of my baby chicks that I hatched, died. One was perfectly fine, and I have no idea why it was dead, along with the bubbly one. I posted in Emergencies but nobody replied at all. It hatched with a large crop full of water, and foam. Seemed to get worse after hatch. Bubbly foam coming from its mouth= but it was active and survived a couple days. Yesterday when I got home, both chicks were dead. Still two that look great- but now I dont trust them. If that makes sense. The one who died seemed perfect as well. The five chicks with Mama Hen are doing well. My dogs have been going outside barking their heads off all night, of and on- so I think the raccoon family has returned next door. As long as my dogs do their job, the babies should be okay. If not, I am setting a trap.
The fuel pump went out on my van yesterday. Luckily, Tiffany and I were not far from home, and my husband rescued me. I went straight to bed and he went and got my medicine. I am very grateful.
I have to continue to go in to work- but my boss has kicked me out two days in a row. We are very short staffed, and there is literally nobody to cover my shift. I would call the tech supervisor to come in, but thats me. haha.
Just in case I dont make it back- I wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays/Season's Greetings/Happy Day. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
