would take a calcium supplement just in case it helps the bone's reconstruction...

Thanks for the tip.
Today everything here is closed.
Tomorrow we hit the road home.
But saturday I can go to the drugstore in NL. FYI: Our pharmacies are 90% for prescriptions. The drugstores are for the simpler medicines and personal care.

We interchange the terms for the same place

Where I live the words pharmacy and chemist are interchangeable, and I almost always use chemist. The words refer to a shop that handles both prescription and what we call over-the-counter medications. Recently, vaccinations have been taken up by chemists too.

Home again.
Chickens seem okay , the chicks are huge.
Good night

The chickens loved it that I’m back from our vacation.
The 3 chicks are still nurtured.

Definitely 1 boy and 2 girls. Soo happy!

The boy has a comb. Climbs on things to get a better view and his stripes are a bit different. Altogether he has a lighter color.

@Perris :
Gladly no Thomson an Tomphson. But Tomboy* could be an option soon with all the older ladies in my flock.

*PS hughe language mistake!
A tomboy is a girl that behaves like a boy.

The new playhouse coop turned out to be very useful to ‘unbroody’ Katrientje twice, and Kraai once. Kraai is in there again because she is not completely convinced yet she has to stop sitting on hay, in her favourite nestbox.

Pullets! Hooray!

And it seems the new coop is going to be a very worthwhile addition to the accommodations.

* More about the cockerels name bc Tomboy is not correct.
The right name would be Toy-boy.
But Im not sure if that sticks. I don’t like that name very much.

@fluffycrow , what do you think? I highly appreciate your thoughts on this dilemma.*

Thank you, I'm honoured! I agree, Toy-boy would be odd. Not that I've ever shied away from an odd name, but toy boy reversed would be an odd name indeed .

Maybe you could shorten it to Tom?
