Me: I'm so sorry Fluffballs!!!! When Junior had a vent gleet I isolated her and gave her tetracycline in her water for four days. It worked miracles after the second day, but I still kept her on it. I haven't had much sickness experiences, so I don't have all that much advice but I will be praying for you!Me: Hi, guys. We just found out that there's something wrong with Miss Terry. I'm still not exactly sure what. Early this morning our puppy had dug into the chicken coop. Mama had dragged her out not too long after and she said that everyone looked fine.
Later, I was putting a fresh layer of shavings on the coop floor when I noticed bloodied shavings. Oh, no. Terry was in the coop and I examined her and found that her vent area was a serious mess. I gave her a bath, to see what was going on. And I found maggots, I think. But she could also have vent gleet. Or have gotten wounded by the dog. She's in a large dog crate, now, being fed upon yogurt and apple cider vinegered water for possible vent gleet, and we also had the lovely task of washing that area with diluted peroxide.
We hope she'll be alright, but your prayers and advice would be greatly appreciated.
Pepper: WHERE IS FUD LADY
Amulet: Didn't you see her? She gave us cold, fresh water and THEN she left.
Pepper: Oh, no I didn't see her. My bad. ^-^;;;

Buttermilk: She's probably getting herself ready for something so she can look all cute.
Bisquick: *glares at Buttermilk* Butter, that's probably the last thing Mom's doing right now.
Snap: Relax, guys, she's at a thing called bolleyball.
Junior: Yea, Bisquick, chill your beans!!
Bisquick: Chill my beans??? Junior, what does that mean?

Snap: I GOT TO GO IN THE HOUSE YESTERDAY!!!! Well, I got to go in cause I had my new chicken diaper on.
Junior: Our chicken diaper. It's all four of ours. Even though it's a little big on me.
Bisquick: Don't worry Junior, you'll grow into it. *smiles smugly* But, until then, you will never wear it.
Junior: NUH-UH!!! Mommy said she can just pin the front back some.
Buttermilk: I like the pattern.
Bisquick: Ya know, Buttermilk, you say the most random things at the most random times.
Buttermilk: What?? We were talking about the diaper, and so I said that l liked the pattern!!
Bisquick: *slightly whispers* Nevermind *shakes head*
(May I join? I don't have any chickens, but I'm around them alot, so could I chat as some of my freind's, talking about average chicken-things? The two chickens I want to do are Sparkles (hen) and Pint-size (roo))
Pint-Size: COCKADOODLEDOOOOO!!!!!
Sparkles: What was THAT for?
Pint-Size: Because I'm the rooster around here, and that's what roosters do.
Sparkles: ROOSTER? Ha! You're half my size, and I've seen you get your butt kicked by the easter egger rooster, now THAT'S a rooster! *swoons*
Pint-Size: *rolls eyes* Oh brother...

(May I add in a guinea of mine, too?(Unless you have a strict only chicken rule) Not sure what gender it is, it's really hard to sex guineas. I'll just assume it's a he, and his name is Whitey (Not very original, I know))
Sparkles: *scratch*
Half-Pint: *scratch*
Whitey: *hop, duck, jump, scratch, leap, duck, scratch*
Sparkles:What ARE you doing?

Sunrise: need help with that?
Selena: I need help with the next question too--Name one breed that has each feather type.
Bisquick: I'm good.It's for How To Make A Dustbath so I'm good.
Buttermilk: Selena, the answer to that question is there is actually not a chicken breed existing that has all the feather types.
Dandelion- I'm so lucky! Mommy says I don't have to start school yet, I'm to young! *squeals with joy*
Mir: I have barred, (very low quality) laced, AND solid feathers. :3 I'm an EE
Buttermilk: Ooo. Pretty Mir!!!
Snap: Now, just shampoo yourself, and get yourself wet, then blow dry your feathers up, and you'll be frizzled!!![]()
Bisquick: Oh dear, another one of Snap's great ideas.
Snap: It'll work well!!!
Junior: MMhm, sure it will.
Snap: *hmph*

Buttermilk: Oh. :3 I get it. Frizzled cochin. Snap.
