These blighters turned out to be black gnats . Horrible things that suck blood

My poor girls got covered in all sorts because I thought they were fleas. In the end I used fractured coconut oil 45 mil too neem oil being 5mil, then several drops of lavender oil in a spray bottle
I applied this the same as people would permethrin, just under their wings vent and the top of the neck. I hope this works. These gnats are vile
.

Those are nasty little things.
A bit early yet for them here but I remember last year the Princesses were not happy about them.
I found that like with mosquitoes, a good breeze is the thing.
I remember @micstrachan posted a rechargeable clip on fan - I think you may even have bought one like I did.
I am going to deploy that when they start getting bad.

I need to hurry up and get my sub back I hate all these adds

I should probably shut up, but the browser I use blocks ads on all sites. Unfortunately it is what I have to use on every site as the ads bog everything down to a unusable speed.

Where was the bumblfoot link
I've been all of a tizzy lately and can't catch up for the life of me

Well there are a few links posted.

Let me see… could only find mine that I posted about, but @Kris5902 has had experience with it.

Mugs Monday
An angry Abigail who just got a Epsom salt bath and her feet wrapped up.

If you can get a video of her walking maybe others here can make suggestions - maybe RC?

I will try. I have never posted a video before, but have a very cute one of Goneril drinking for Thirsty Thursday, so should try to figure it out.

I can’t wait to see them fully feathered

Yes, it will be exciting!

You have to upload it to a video hosting site. Most people use YouTube but some folk dontbuse that and any service will work. Then you post a link to your video where you uploaded it.
The trick is to decide how private you want it to be.
If it is completely private then none of us can see it! I do it so only people with the link can see it which means it won’t come up in searches.
I also use a Google account that I only use for BYC (very easy to have multiple Google accounts) so nobody viewing the video finds out the real me.
Not all sites have the same privacy settings. It is all easier than I made it sound!
We definitely want to see your cute videos.

I am still using YouTube as I couldn’t find anything fast enough and easy enough for me to do in a hurry.

Let me know if you need assistance.

Well the chooks are a fan of Dropkick Murphy - Rose Tattoo who knew chickens liked punk rock! Or maybe that look is asking me why? Why? Why? Are you belting out that racket!

My little punk rock dude

I think it’s a great tune and it’s Irish what’s not to love
