I developed it in one of my thumbs after an awkward bout with a garlic press where I actually heard the tendon pop. Steroid injection (twice) and it abated on its own, which is good. Nobody needs a permanent "thumbs up!"...although the permanent bird to flip might be useful. ;)

Hi All!
I'm kind of embarrassed as it has been eons since I was on BYC.
Things got busy as far as multiple (TOO MANY) projects, travel, and then a couple of surgeries and I sort of took a gap year or so from everything... And now am having to catch up or, rather, cleanup as the yard got...
Strict biosecurity is a must. No free-ranging. No coop+run access for wild birds (roof over run.) No introduction of outside chickens to the flock. No visiting other flock locations and then entering your own chickens' home without changing shoes. (Better yet, don't visit other flocks...
