One of the great chicken characters of all time.

What a jaunty girl! That pose, her step, her comb! She had a good life there, and at her second home with her new friends. You did right by her.

Thank you.

Reading what @Sylvester017 just wrote, on chickens getting ill and vets being away etc. Our vets were four bus rides away. And from what people told me worse than useless. They actually caused deaths.

One receptionist i spoke with was perfect for treating chickens. Their vets wouldn't let her practice. But luckily for me on that day I spoke with her, she was able to give me advice.

IMHO. Wrong people are in the job over here. They just want money

All the chooks who were moulting here when I brought Petra and Leah here where the ones who became really sick.

This is another reason I am afraid if the ones moulting now get sick. Add in the cold weather and that is a good amt of stress.

Would electrolytes in their water supply or NutriDrench help get them thru moult w/ less stress?

Our vet loves that we supplement w/ vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, etc, & especially when medically treating an in-house bird.
