Thought I would give an update on the toe. She has, at the very least, lost her toe nail. Where all the black was before, looks like pink new flesh. Unsure if she will ever grow another nail. But it does appear she has most, if not all of her toe.
Now on to my little mister. I noticed when I...
Ya you're right, I knew that when I said it but got busy with chicks and totally forgot when it got tense out there.
Ended up taking my laptop out and my new Renogy solar suitcase I've wanted for years. Both groups of chicks out and all was going good until it started raining and I needed to...
Thank you. So I give her a whole tablet of the children's aspirin twice a day? I will try to get some. I really wish my driver would get off his bum and get that van checked so I can get it bought and work on getting my life back. I quit driving because of my C1/C2 subluxation and the pain it...
Thanks everyone, I'm a strange one when it comes to animals. They don't ask to be put in situations. They look to us to care for them. And it really bothers me when I could have prevented something.
I don't typically look to quizzes and such online. But it does amaze me how accurate they can be...
@azygous I'm noticing something different with that little girl with the toe issue. I noticed a couple minutes in on soaking her foot, she started acting like it hurt here. The water was warm but not hot.
I just went out to check on everyone and close the little door. I noticed she was holding...
Last post for the day... Maybe... I'm wore out and still need to get my dinner going.
Rather then going back to the post and editing there. I will just put the URL here. Someone else on the site says the video is working fine. I can't get it to work for me right now. Probably to do with my OS...
My Little Lady will pick on me while I am trying to do their water. Pecking on my back until I bring her around and pet her. Pip Squeak on the other hand will just push in between my knees and tuck her head at my hip and wait patiently for me to pet her. The other 2 girls are a bit more...
OK, I have epsom salt, something I always keep on hand for me and my clumsiness in the kitchen. How long for each soak give or take? And would more then a couple times help or hinder?
I am very happy to have that piece of information azygous. I figured if it was going fall off as you've said...
I wish I had taken the camcorder out with me. I decided to let the big kids out while I shuffled their shavings, replaced their water and filled their food up. And just let them run a while. And decided to do something silly.
It didn't last more then about 10-15 minutes but was an interesting...
Please do, I don't mind at all. I can use all the help I can get.
Does gangrene really set in that fast. It musta been that way longer then I thought. If it is, how do I handle this. Never had to cull a chick.

Hello, before I do anything, I think I need to mention that I do have another account here. But I'd been gone so long that I had forgotten my log-in information. Thankfully they were able to help me since my email address for that account had changed with an underscore. But I just couldn't wait...
As soon as I can get older ones thinned. I will be trying to turn them loose all day and see how it goes. As for the littlest ones I think I should wait at least week if not 2 before turning them all out together. To many for me to supervise alone. And fee comfortable about it.
Will be bored...
Just thought I'd let ya know wanna-be momma managed to get the older kids out in the yard. They were out there for about 15 minutes when the freak out happened.
Momma peahen decided to come into to the yard cuz she knows where the chicken food is, since I won't feed them dinner 'til my kids are...
Hello again. I'm curious as usual. Re; the older kid with the ring of poo around her toe just below the second knuckle.
I noticed it yesterday and don't think it was there much longer because I was out at least 2 nah, 3 or 4 times a day with a small bowl of very warm water and a rag to soak...
Hello, Does anyone have any ideas on the easiest way to get poo off an older kids toe? It was easy when it had shavings mixed in. A little warm water and it was done.
But this kid has poo up to it's 2nd joint, knee(?). It's not so think that she can't bend her joints. I'm just more concerned...
