I never sugar coat anything. My sister always asks my opinion and I ask if she wants the truth or for me to lie!

Oh common, don't sugar coat it. Tell us how you really feel!

***Update on Iris***


Do not look if you are squeamish!!! Scroll on by.


Took Iris to the vet at 5:00 and Dr. B put a needle to it to see if he could withdraw any fluid. It was very solid. He then tried to open it with a scalpel to see if it could be squeezed out. Nope! He said he would have to cut it off and asked me if I wanted to stay and watch. I stayed and watched.
They put her under and he carefully cut it off her neck. He got the whole thing off and carefully stitched her up. (he even added some "glue" to ensure it stays shut) Seems it was a cyst that birds get and it isn't cancerous. She is in the "hospital" in our living room and will stay there for a week. He did not bandage it up as he said it just needs fresh air. He also has her on Baytril for 10 days. She is very groggy right now and we shall see how she is tomorrow.

This is cut open so we could look what was inside. The blood blob is where the feather was sticking out of. The cyst is about the size of a half dollar.

Mama Hen: You win the gross contest.

I'm so happy that she'll be all right, I know she's in good hands!

Fuzzybird: How do I enter that contest. That would be fun!

Momma and chicks are all moved into their new coop, and it went smoothy. Although, she is preferring to sleep on the ground rather than her nest.

I suppose she knows best.
