Granny's gone and done it again

Look here. I went out to gather eggs and I found Moon Shadow, my Ameraucana cockerel, whispering sweet nothings to one of the Black Australorp pullets as she prepared to lay her egg on the coop floor. I've never seen a male do this before, I was quite touched.

Sciatica

Nooooo...

Just curious why did you separate them?
We have a silkie bantam rooster named Romeo that knows he is a handsome dude and all the girls want to be with him. He will do his feather dance around hens twice his size and fight any rooster that tries to intervene. He has a hen of his own (her name is Juliette of course) and she is the only hen that will let him mount. This morning, when I let them out, he decided I was worthy of his attention and did his dance around my feet. I told him to keep dreaming! He looked up at me like he knew what I was saying and went to stand guard beside Juliette at the water fountain. I started my day with a good laugh.

Cute!

trying to see if cortisone shots in my shoulders will help with these Occipital headaches

Ooh, that's interesting! Worth a try, let us know how it goes.

Glad your knees are good. I have an appointment for a shot in my knee next week. Insurance won't do the gel one until 6 months. So next month. I made it a year before but I messed it up turning wrong on it.
Also, same dr., trying to see if cortisone shots in my shoulders will help with these Occipital headaches.

How could your shoulders possibly relate to headaches?

Sciatic ain't fun. Had it once, bent over and wet myself when the pain shot down the back of my leg. Not pleasant no matter how you look at it.

I have a pup here who is on a rip. Ambushing ankles and feet, pouncing on the old dogs, stealing anything she can grab and dragging it to her bed, crying to go out every 10 minutes.....I think the latter is because the deer were up in the yard raiding the bird feeder again the last time I had her out and I suspect she saw the white backsides and tails disappearing into the woods for the first time.

Yes, we have a fenced in area in the offing as soon as this cold weather breaks. I saw that our low on Friday night is -6. Sigh. Hopefully sometime in February.....or March....or July........I told DH the other day I don't really hate winter. I just hate January. Too danged cold.

Nerve roots coming out of your cervical spine area. I have shoulder pain that is caused by my neck. It's really interesting how nerves work together and not necessarily to your good.

The shoulder bone's connected to the...neck bone. The neck bone's connected to the....head bone

Look up Occipital Neuralgia.
