Dunno, we’ll just have to see. I’ll probably end up ringing pest control.

I feel bad, it has to be done to protect the rest of my flock.
I’ll have to change my set up after he’s got to prevent this from happening again.

Yeah its to protect your flock. This is why we do these things for our flock that are like our babies.

Good Morning Everyone,

I woke up still sick this morning on my damn holiday! Sore throat, headaches, sore body, runny nose, blocked ears.

I had cold and flu tablets. Left an awful taste in my mouth that I can't get rid of.

How is everyone else this morning/night?

That sucks, I hope you feel better!

The chicks are doing good. Chick #3 is slowly improving

Yay!

I'm good and my chooks are great.
The one with the worn out ligament has not got a worn out ligament at all!
The vet told us an untruth and nearly put her down.
She can walk and is back with the flock as of tonight.

I'm sorry

Jordan annoyed with me now. He wanted to lay on top of me and cuddle me but im hot as im not well so im like no please get off and I turned the fan up but no his annoyed and said im faking sick! Why would anyone fake being this sick! Omg don't need this today.

Jeff has done that to me once, acted like I wasn't that sick- men lol

We paid £40:00 just to get her looked at for them to say "oh let's just put her down"

That's why I hate taking my pets to the vet. I paid over $100 for my puppy to get a sugar treatment because she was hypoglycemic because she wouldn't eat due to being dewormed/vaccinated and she ended up dying. That was in 2011.

The only non-fluffy part of him now is his little head

Bubbles
Buttercup
Blossom
And Reynold ( )

Cute names! Blossom is another nickname I call my DS. He'll probably hate it one day. I make it worse by adding the word "tiny" in front of it.

I somehow forgot to mention my highlights of this past week.

We had a "fire" incident on Friday. It was around midnight and the fire alarm went off. DH opened the door to the neighbor saying to get out of the building because there was a fire on the main floor. DH kept telling me we had to strap DS into the carseat. I told him there was no time, we gotta wrap him in a blanket and grab the cat and go. Strapping DS in the carseat took forever, but DH wouldn't let me just take him out out of the building in the blanket. He was afraid I would trip with DS. Anyway when we got out other people had their babies in blankets. I tried telling DH that people can die from smoke inhalation and that a flame doubles every 5 seconds. He said there are no flames, only smoke. Well he was at least right about that, someone just burnt their food and the fire department came to tell us all to go back upstairs.

Other incident not serious but just sucks. DS put his shoe in the trash and I didn't know and took it to the chute. I could've called management to retrieve but we had a piece of mail thrown out by their housekeeper when we were moving here and they wouldn't let me in the garbage room because I didn't have steel toed shoes so the poor front desk girl went in the dumpster and got my important mailed document.

Anyway this is probably like the 4th time I lost something I would consider sentimental because I thought I could trust a baby/toddler with it lol. I need to be more careful with stuff..the shoe was given to him by his nana for his birthday. Good thing babies grow out of shoes every 6 months or so so by the next time she sees him I can just put on a different pair.

I didn’t document it in an article. I’m fairly new to all this. If you will guide me. I’d love to submit it. Thank you!

Go here and start an article: https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/category/chicken-coops.12/

Change the tag to Brooder and include any build picture, drawings or schematics, Materials lists and a list of dos and don'ts.

The best build articles give enough information for someone to build one like it.
