Has anyone seen this at their TSC? It is $25 for the 2 oz of cream. Would it be a good thing to have on hand for injuries?

Sorry, I was in a hurry, so I didn't get a picture of the other side.

Saw that at Peavey Mart last week in the horse section.

I just use regular old polysporin.

Trying to finish my door, all 4 of my batteries to my Dewalt saw and drill are drained sheesh! I think they are just too old and won’t hold a good charge anymore.

Oh well guess I will just have to sit and watch chooks for a bit!

Ooo I am so beautiful, I am so beautiful, gorgeous hunk-a hunk-a man, I am so beautiful

Twirp has a TON of new feathers sprouting around her tail She's going to be fully covered again soon! Whiskey is taking his time, but has pins coming too.

CAUTION @RoyalChick moult pics, all the hard moult pics are running around and eating plenty so while look uncomfortable, aren't ACTING uncomfortable.

Twirp

And a closer tail shot. She has pins coming quickly below, too.

Enigma has some feather shred happening....so did Silver....maybe I have my offspring?

Chia, eyeing nest bank for landing. She's being treated as if she has started laying. She didn't to into a nest box. Rather she used the ledge to get around the crowd at my feet.

Maizie, Jessica, Whiskey: telling Maizie and Havoc apart is going to be tricky: the black beard and Havoc has fairly strong Colombian markings around her neck, while Maizie has very faint ones....they both have black tails, along with Pippa....

Roos: Whiskey and Cheetah

Poor moulting ladies: Pippa and Lark (She's getting it HARD)

Exit stage left: Whiskey, Pippa, PITA
Enter stage right, top to bottom: Blanche, tailless Indigo (shaking her loose feathers out), Mera, Nellie

Surprisingly warm today (almost 60f) but chilly wind. Lots of sunning going on.

They make molting look good!

Today kinda sucks! Remember that elderly lady neighbor? Well she’s sick and had no one to help her out. She called me and asked me to come over. I brought Sir Jaffar with me, fed her and took her to the bathroom. Gave her her meds and am now in her living room watching tv with my rooster buddy. I will be heading home soon as a caregiver arrives this afternoon. Sir Jaffar has been feeling better lately and I’m glad for that!

Your batteries are probably getting super old. You should replace them. Or hire my little brother. Power tool nut.

Wow all grown up - I miss the wee babies that they were Sophia is also really shedding feathers still, what a time of year to do this!

It’s nice here today also, 14C and lots of sun. I had everyone outside enjoying the day. Not much longer they will be able to do this. I would say by the weekend we will be into snow. Poor Sophia

I just have to ask - is that one lone feather ? so odd how they just keep one or two.
