Here's the update...

Apparently chickens can enjoy baths because he was drowsing in it as I washed him with lavender baby wash and a splash of vinegar in hot soapy...



Note all the 'crud' on my hand and the color of the water. I had to change part way because I wasn't able to rinse effectively anymore.



Post-wash hair do This is why we call him Kahuna.

Now he started shivering so I squeezed water out with a towel and blow dried. I could see dead lice vibrating out as I dried.
Can't forget underneath! Such an accommodating chicken.

Wow. Fluffy!

Sorry I couldn't rotate the photo. I've been holding him a while to help him stay warm. I'm reluctant to put him out again as the night are getting cold. Meanwhile, I put a drop of Hartz flea/tick on his head, above his vent and under each wing. Its mild enough for puppies and frankly doesn't work that great on the dog. My son was charged with clearing all the bedding and laying DE and new bedding. If nothing else he is cleaner!

I just received the boxes I ordered directly from Horizon. After my reasearch they had the best prices. It took about two weeks to get them. No one around here sells them locally.

Thanks! I'm very happy with my chocolates this season. This wc blue is too light to breed or show so my daughter is going to try and use her for showmanship.

Sarah ... I got one from you like that. She is beautiful. I really love her. Here she is

Here are some more from yours that I just took pics of. The Buff Laced are from Bare Necessities.

Here in the US you don't have to be part of the Polish breeders club to show. Not sure how it is where you are. I am a member of the US Polish Breeders Club.
