Sorry for the awful picture. I put vinyl netting on the rafters to keep the girls from roosting up there, they were getting poop everywhere. I'm trying to contain the majority of the mess under the roosting bars for cleaning purposes.
How did things go with putting mesh on the rafters? I am...I was looking at ways to discourage my flock from roosting in my rafters (instead of their roosting bar) and pooping ALL of the floor, your pictures came up. Great idea with the mesh fencing on the rafters. Thanks for sharing

Head still not fluffy.....When I found Snowshoe in the incubator she was stuck to the bottom; glued there. I guess she got stuck on her back and couldn`t get turned over and dried there. So I took a seringe and started irrigating with water till I unstuck the her....then I rubbed/ bathed her with a warm wet cloth and put her in the incubator till she dried. She also had a "scabbie" crust over half her head, so I started applying vasoline till it got soft enough to peel off and or fell of. Then I adressed her feet. 1 week later I removed the paddles and she is running all over. Her feet aren`t completely perfect but she can get around very well.

My Husband named this chick because when it was hatched it`s feet were all crooked, so the crazy chicken lover that i am, and alittle of the nurse in me came up with a paddle looking thing and stuck it to the bottom of the chicks feet once i got them spred. So he started saying they looked like snowshoes....so that`s were the name came from.

This is the only chick that hatched out of this batch ( nov. 4 2012 ).......none of my Americana eggs hatched nor were they fertilized.....yet this was a by chance egg i put in the incubator .....and voila - HOPE - I named her Hope because she was lifeless that morning....I brought her in the house, started rubbing her while she was wrapped in a heating blanket.......then a little movement and a small PEEP....thats all I needed to hear!
