Chrissy's having an epsom salt soak right now, in a nice low tub where she can't get into trouble.

Hows her foot looking @BantyChooks

Starting to peel. Keeping her cage very clean.

Does she have frost bite I checked in a few days ago and I was confused as to who had frost bite. And looks like according to your Avatar she and your new drake have made friends?

Yes, the foot coming off is due to frostbite. I also have 2 more pullets in the basement with frostbite. They were too young to be out in the cold.

No, that's an old pic, sadly. Drake is still refusing to be nice.
Man, I miss Tucson... He was a really sweet drake. He never bit anyone.

It's amazing the difference between drakes.

I am sorry about the frost bite gosh I hope they get through it with out infection. You think they will all lose a foot?

Georgia (pullet) just lost a toe coz I got her in soon enough, she is too skinny to go back out without endangering her life. Maple has enormous blisters, but her toes are warm so I think she'll keep both feet.

She was popping them herself and getting them dirty, so I popped them all and wrapped her foot up. She's eating well, so

Aww bless their hearts. I am glad they are recovering.

Chrissy ate 4 oz of food yesterday, and is chowing down on today's bowl right now.

Hoping to get her to 5 oz eaten per day within the next few days...
