:frow Good morning Bob

For which I am extremely grateful... and I hope Roostie can be as well for a long time! Would there be any point in attempting to resume treatment with the enrofloxacin... I can’t find my prepaid CC to do the online shopping, and will need to get another one purchased, hopefully tomorrow, 100sq...

Thank you for the guidance, I really am more than a little out of my comfort zone with ordering medications like these. And he is such a sweet boy it would be a shame to lose him, and I hate seeing him limp. I will rush the shipping and cross my fingers it makes it across the border... I was...

The bumble on his good foot is about the same size as the bad one was initially it’s a blurry pic of a dirty foot so I’ve outlined the bumble And this is where I’m considering making an incision. I am certain there is an infection and I think this is the most likely place to drain any pus from...

Here is his foot mid bumble treatments and his “good” (less bad) foot with its bumble... excuse the dirt/poop these pics are from mid October, and I had already been treating him for almost two weeks, we had just gotten the pus/infection/stringy gross bumble stuff to the point where it wasn’t...

Bottom of foot the bumble is gone and it healed nicely The bumble was about the size of my middle finger nail and centered in the pink area of the foot pad Hopefully these pictures give an idea of the swelling His foot is quite hot

Ok, I now have a very grumpy Roostie, one less baby wipes box, and a perhaps somewhat cleaner floor thanks to the failure of the foot bath solution (which might work with a less than ten pound rooster with legs the size of a loonie) and a fairly nasty poop offering. Further disappointing is that...

I haven’t placed my order yet... I’m not sure what I should try honestly. I wish he was a little less attached to his ladies and I could bring him inside the big coop for winter. It is raining cats and dogs and this complicates his treatment. Please remember I don’t actually have access to a vet...

I am quite worried about it, but unless another bumble forms I don’t know what to do about it, except order more antibiotics, and hope for the best. I think I have an arrangement for soaking it without soaking him though. So I will likely try that out soon. I’m going to use a baby wipe container...

I suppose I should give a little Update on Roostie, he will not be a happy camper when I get home. I left his run door closed this morning before we headed into town for our big winter shop, as his foot is still swollen and the infection seems to be traveling upwards. I am waiting on more...

Good morning Bob :frow

technically we have to stop until we get it renewed and pay an additional $300 renewal fee, but we don’t have to go through the full application process again (it took us something like a year and a half last time). Fingers crossed DH signs it “Andrew Campbell” and it just get’s OK’d as he...

Good afternoon Bob :frow I’ve missed you too! I’m slowly getting back online, but the threads are so busy it’s hard to keep up...

Probably not... basically unless there was something “significant to inspect” they were protecting the inspectors by not sending them out to job sites. People here are quite afraid. There was a Facebook forum post that almost incited a mob mentality uprising against some workers the vineyard...

It’s a miracle the floor held out... he did break the threshold of the door and I need to fill it back up with a 2x4, mostly to keep rodents out of the floor, which could then open the way for mink. He had to turn sideways and go in one shoulder at a time. Somehow. We should have asked him for...

Still not there yet, and our house “update” is pretty boring. But, our trailer isn’t quite as vintage as the one now housing the 40 free ranging birds. I did steal the toilet out of this trailer though. They knew how to build them to last back in the day (considering the chicken trailer is older...

And I’m not getting notifications on my own thread... what a neglectful poster I am. Things have been a bit crazy here on the funny farm, so I have been hiding over at FluffyButt Acres, not really hiding, but barely keeping up. No big house updates and our building permit is now expired (thanks...

Trailer Park Chickens pt1 first order of business was clearing out the dinette foam, old mattresses, cutlery, and curtains Then removing glass mirrors and reinforcing the floor which had spongy spots that threatened to collapse under me. And throwing a secure ing layer of plywood over the...

None of the raccoons we have shot have been processed, but the Teenager who was attending the alternative outdoor school here was tanning the hides... a neighbor ate a roasted raccoon he caught, apparently it was delicious. I am not a huge fan of bear, so unless I get to make it for the Aunts in...

So, after that super lengthy introduction post, I give you all “Little Red” almost 4 months old, now very suspicious of strange tall thing that keeps picking him up. Upon morning release and feeding he took off back to the field he has been in the last two weeks, so he is still not flocking...
