Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[TX Chick Noob]

hi everyone

i am home and finally out of the anesthesia fog. My entire arm feels dead due to a nerve block. Sadly that is starting to wear off in the last 2 hours. I am following the anesthesiologists strict instructions on pain control. i took my first dose at 6. I am to continue taking them every 6 hours until Saturday. Then i take them as needed. He warned me to not delay in taking them even if i was not hurting. if i let the pain set in i will be in a world of trouble. he said if i can keep ahead of it untill saturday then it will be smooth sailing. they do make me a little loopy, but i am sleeping most of the time.

i probably will not be on tomorrow. this typing one handed is for the birds.

So glad it went well! My husband has had both of his shoulders done, and mom had one done. Definitely stay ahead of the pain!!!!

I have bricks arranged around the feeder and waterer, with a second level. The Littles seem to be able to reach the watering cups and the feeder with the second layer of bricks to stand on, and the feeders-waterers don’t get filthy.

When I put chicks into the coop/run (segregated in their own part at the beginning), I have a hanging waterer that I use. I put stacked up bricks around it so that they can reach water. As they get bigger, I take out a layer of bricks, until they're gone. Clean waterer, clean water.

I have tried!
Tassels really is kicking up a storm. I am finding clumps of straw on window sills.
Off out to freshen up water again!
