More about decisions on the path you take in life it's a good book

 

[5Sons Coop]

So I have a chicken with sour crop and read lots of remedies. Would like any of your input on what has worked for you.

After reading a few things it could be several issues, need to take a closer look tomorrow. Also past due to worm seems I better start there.

Felt a bit chilly in my sleeveless shirt today. Only 77 degrees and overcast, so a mite cool.

@Sally Sunshine

Yeah, 75 and a little drizzly here. Brrrrr...

Popping in for the evening.

@runt325 prayers
@LittleLakePhil loop recorder is good-will see if she's having pauses or a heart block. Whatever they find, hopefully they can improve her quality of life.I know it's hard to be happy when you feel lousy

Got a TSC gift card for my anniversary. apparently him giving me a blank check for Valentines Day was too frightening for him

Got a steal on a pair of Mucks arctic editions for next winter, a bunch of chicken tshirts for working around here, a pair of summer galoshes in cheetah print, a bunch of specialty feed and shavings to get them ready for show soon & a magazine. I refrained from any of the chicks and ducks they had available

Woohoo!!! My local TSC has chicks and ducks, too. I walked VERY VERY FAST past them to get the bajillion pounds of chick starter I need for my bajillion hungry chicks...

There is peeping coming from the hatcher I'm anxious to see what hatches. I'm thinking maybe by morning there should be some fluffy butts in there

We're saving our own lives. It's true we make a brighter day, just you and me.

I just checked.

She passed she's in peace

I'm so sorry for your loss.

My husbands complaining that chickens are now taking over my wardrobe too.

(shirt says "Yes, I really do need all these chickens.)

Cranky day today at work, then errands in the rain. Then I needed to clean the brooders - including under the MHP for the new little chicks, because even though I cleaned it a few days ago, it was stinky again. And what did I find? Yup - a smooshed dead chick in the early stages of decomposition buried in the bedding under the MHP.

So now, one week out, there are 16 (two of which I had serious pasty butt treatment to do for this AM).

At that point I decided I had earned an adult beverage or two.

The good news is the cats are getting more and more comfortable. Brooke actually let me pet and scratch her head once today!!!!

(You have no idea what a miracle that is!) No such luck with Opal yet, but she DID get really relaxed about her new catnip toy...



Somebody went #1 outside of the litterbox - fortunately it was on the pee pad I had put at the entrance of the litterbox. Worried about that, hope we don't have a problem...

Oh, how's this for a neat fun fact - I apparently now have the occasional fire ant coming INTO MY BED at night to bite me!!!! (They invade houses sometimes when it rains a lot).

On that note, I think I'll go crawl into my (potentially ant infested) bed and crash. Good night, all!!!

You're evil.

YES! I need to watch those videos someday... Always looked hilarious....

No, mommy, we'll be good, promise.

Your BED? That's insane. You know what, I don't envy you... Keep your 70 degree weather, and keep the ants too, thanks.

Sorry about Chicky.

Today's babies so far. Still a couple stragglers in the hatcher, taking their good old time lol. The bigger silkie in there is my little Premie that I helped hatch a few weeks ago

No TV here.

And believe it or not, I hate most movies and videos. Just not my thing. So I haven't gotten it on DVD either.
