Louise's country closet has great diapers! I have several for my girls. What a great idea about the cling wrap! I had been pinning in Saran Wrap, not so easy.
Congrats again Mschickenmomma!!
Love the new house additions realsis! What kind are they?
Chickenpeep, ebony is adorable!
Y'all...
Hey everyone! It's been awhile since I've been on here! It has been a crazy few months. My pregnancy made me so nauseous that even the thought of my chickens made me sick so I had to avoid chicken stuff for awhile. My poor hubby took the job of chicken caretaker for awhile (he is VERY happy I'm...
I am so sorry for your loss :(
I have to agree with the other posters, please do not bring your birds to an upcoming show. They should all be quarantined until you know for a fact that no one else has it. It isn't worth a ribbon/piece of paper etc if you are knowingly putting other birds at...

Mg15- how cute!! Dottie looks so proud! Such a good mom.

Your poor baby!!!! :( makes me so sad. I really hope she pulls through. I will eventually have to rehome some of the babies. Let me know if you want any!!!
Poor baby!!!! :( also, to go along with what has been said, lidocaine isn't toxic to chickens. We used it for surgery all the time on chickens. It is just a local anesthetic like novacaine. Since the birds have to be kept on such a low dose of isoflurane (anesthesia) because of their size and...
