    PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN

    I noticed that too. Skinny too, compared to my chickies. Hoping it's a girl, boys are not allowed here, so I'd have to find a sanctuary. Just picked up her friend that was at the park too.

    PLEASE HELP IF YOU CAN

    Thank you. Yes, she/he is eating really well. Must have been so hungry. I just started using that spray. There were 2 at the park, someone else retrieved the other one last night, I just picked her/him upend put them "together." The injured one is in a crate but they are talking to each other.

    I had a contractor put a roof on the run. I had been using a tarp and it never seemed to stay dry. The girls are happy and I wish I had put one one originally. What do you think?
