Morning! Thanks for the coffee.
Yes on the firecrackers; both levels of the house even...
Sean, I hope you stay safe and do not get any tornados!
DL, I am sure your chickens will appreciate the new digs very soon. Great job!
Debbie, enjoy the day! At least the sun is shining so people will come out of hiding...
Have a good one you all.

Morning sour, how are you and 'the Princess' doing?

Thanks for the video.
I know it's all in my head. My problem is the feel of the needle going into the skin and if the animal reacts at all, that makes it worse for me. I need to practice jabbing the needle through something that will replicate her skin so I know what to expect without practicing on her.

You will need a spare needle, as use dulls them. They use oranges to practise injections.

The Great Eastward Chicken Pilgrimage occurred last night. After roosting time so I left the brooder light on for them all night to learn the lay of the land.
I didn't get the door closed to the old coop in time this morning and some of the girls made it in there to lay. But two of them left their rent payment in the new nest box!

Awesome Super Coop!

Morning Cafe folk! Jut checking in to let y'all know that I'm sitting here waiting to hear from the vet school. They will let me know when I can bring my Peekaboo hen in. She started overly drinking yesterday, so I brought her inside t ok observe. Had to give her water through the night and take it back away to keep her from leaking out the mouth when she bent over! I studied on the internet and knew to check her abdomen. Sure enough it is full of fluid! Very likely a reproductive problem. She is one of my best layers, and one of my tamest,in your pocket babies.

Meanwhile my Dominique, Sophie has been in an inside cage with lethargy and smelly diarrhea; getting electrolytes and probiotics as was recommended.
Please just keep us in your thoughts today!

I sure hope they both perk up!
