That was certainly my chuckle of the day! Did George invite friends or did they see an opportunity for a Silkie pile-up?! He was determined not to get pushed out

George highlight.

Just how long is his topknot going to get? It is still growing and full of pinfeathers. They are not even ready yet for me to help him get the covering off. @Ponypoor, are you sure you do not have a full white polish hen running about? Little Georgie man swears to me he is full polish instead of a polkie.

George started it and invited his silkie siblings to join in.

Bad Flopsy

Just checked camera and he looks ok so far. And so does she - her limp is improving. Hopefully in a couple weeks she will be much improved. But she will stay in with Mr P until those rootin tootin roos get dealt with

 

[Grandma The Chicken]

Today I learned that my chickens are afraid of the sound someone makes when they blow their nose.
I was blowing my nose three times and it sounded like a semi truck horn. Mere seconds later, all 4 of them were frantically running around, panicking as if the world was going to end. Poor Grandma was standing in the corner. I blew my nose again and Grandma ran away from my window nervously. I've proven my point.

TY Marie2020 ~ these methods all work in helping prevent & sometimes alleviate symptoms. Unfortunately most of us wait till there's a severe problem & expect instant relief. I'm 110% on natural stuff as you know & most of the time don't take meds cuz they make me sicker. For instance rather than prescribed steroid creme I used natural Arnica instead for skin irritations & resorted to a Dr prescribed steroid creme only in one case of severe vasculitis.

I'm sorry you are suffering this.

& in this day & age of delayed so-called social medicine it can take days or weeks to get medical appts so knowing natural relief before a Dr is a relief.

It's up to 3 weeks to speak to a GP on the phone and I've waited 9 months for a scan. I'm getting a physio appointment at the end of this month the waiting lists are inhuman

Bless you for info you share.

I actually gave the antibiotics a good go . But the turned my water into acid and the pain I had in my kidneys was as bad as when I was in my teens.
I had to get more tablets off my doctor too deal with that situation. So dental antibiotics is not something my body can tolerate unfortunately and the good doctors try to avoid giving them out.

Tax ~ chicken slippers ~ DH surprised me on 2018 Bday
