Those things have foamed in place insulation like a water heater. The adhesive properties of the foam might be keeping the back on.

ARIZONA CHICKEN LOVERS!!! I have decided it is time to find better home for 'BIG ROO' aka 'Albion' he will still get his portrait painted entitled 'BIGGER THAN LIFE' but he needs a bigger environment with more hens than I can provide. Nor do I have the time or inclination to 're-train' an aggresive Roo. He is such a WELSUMER beauty though and only 5 months old...

Will consider free to good home NO SOUP POT!

And maybe an exchange with his 2 - 5 month old WELSUMER LADIES for a more mature proven docile ROO of any kind.

I have lotsa wee young folks around here and art students I don't need a BIG ROO to frighten them away!

If you are interested or know someone who might be contact me here and I will get in touch! PS I am in N AZ - Cottonwood! but have friends in Tucson...

Amelia laid her first egg today.

Not as blue as I thought but still blue. Bluer than my EE's egg though.

I am not sure her age. I got her from aurorarose25 the end of July and she was thinking 12 weeks then. If that is the case, it would make her 7 months?

I was looking for blue shoe polish, alas to no avail...

HELP!!!! My BCM is egg-bound, I'm pretty sure. She has been sitting in her nesting box for a few days, off and on, and today she looks very swollen on her bottom side. I think I know what to do, but I'm not sure, being a new chicken owner and all. She hasn't laid any eggs, yet. Can anyone help?

Mikey, that was NOT appropriate behavior I want 'em BACK. Thery are shingles for my gingerbread house and my Walgreens doesn't carry nice old fashioned candy like neccos and AbbaZabba and red hots.
*sniff*

THANK YOU Tammy. It's not YOUR fault.

So when you come over to get your shinny new lab coat I'll have Neccos - whey'll ya be here?

I have to go get two computer fans. Finally got them out. One looks like it's supposed to run all the time and one had a sensor affixed to it??? The motor froze, it won't turn except with force. It's rather large, about 4 3/4 inch, and the other about 3 inch.

I'm off. Mikey, I will call

I would bring her in and soak her in warm water ( just up to her vent) for about half an hour. The warm water helps to relax her muscles. Towel her and even blow dry her on warm. I have a dog crate that I use for the "hospital" room. Keep it dark so she can rest. If her vent is swollen, I would apply hemorrhoid cream.

I just had to do this with my EE the other morning ( of course before work) After the bath, blow dry and cream, she laid an egg before I left for work. I hope this helps some.
