California - Northern

Oh. I also have 5 Rhode Island Reds and 2 Andalusians(one black, one splash) that are 10 weeks old, that I need to sell. I bought them from McMurray as day-old female chicks, just to fill the minimum order of 15. So you know, if anyone wants to buy them.... :) shoot me a message.
 
I had a guy and his kids come get a few chicken today.. They pulled up in a Convertible car SOOOOOOO Unprepared ...I showed them what I had for sale, wanted everything but what I showed them. Then after finally getting them to Commit on two chicks about 4 weeks old. I asked them if they had a cage?
NOPE! We will just hold them on are lap. Did I Mention they were in a convertible.... The Dad was getting them for his daughter. She never stopped texting and playing with her phone the Intire time. I had to repeat myself way to many time.... RUDE PEOPLE ! So frustrating...
 
My foster dog just got ahold of Charlotte. After I dragged him into the house I went to check on my chicken and although nothings broken she does have a big cut on her leg and doesn't like when I touch that leg. Should I spray Blue Kote on the cut?

Molly,

Thank you again for the Orp chicks. I was going to post a picture, but I've had a couple of issues today. The skunk and this morning the laptop wouldn't power up (I haven't even finished paying for the darn thing). Anyway, I'm trying to post on my tiny vacation netbook at the moment.

Very frustrating.

The best bet is to first spray with Vetricyn if you have it. Then I'd coat it with BluKote and keep a close eye on her. Make sure she doesn't get shocky. I'd keep her quiet for the rest of the day and then return her to the flock.
 
she had good cordination. sadly she died though. she was one of the ones from Sand Hill. she has always been the smallest
Would you share the recipe? Looks delicious! I'm sorry you lost her. I decided to try out a new bread recipe today, since it's actually cool enough to bake. It's one of those where you throw the dough together the day before, and let it sit covered on your counter until you bake it. It was super easy.

I don't have Vetricyn...should I just use the blue kote? She's been laying down a lot. Should I separate her from all the others for the rest of the day? They put themselves to bed in about 30 mins. Where would I put her?

Ditto. If she is limping them keep her isolated until she is not limping.

Not limping when she walks, but she's just been laying down next to a plant near the coop. I don't have Vetricyn
