Margo is in Trouble

[micstrachan]

Back at work. Catch you all later.

 

[micstrachan]

I have a crazy thought… Could it be related to the plucking on her back, like a feather cyst or something? Her her hunched over stance is strange.

 

[rebrascora]

It is out of the box thinking which is good but I very much doubt a feather cyst would make her feel so ill. No harm in checking her over when you get home though.

 

[micstrachan]

OK, maybe that was a dumb thought. Anyway, I just got home, and Margo looks pretty good! Kiki, you would’ve been proud of me… I didn’t touch the girl. I just opened the gate and let them out to free range, and everybody was happy.

I am happy for you and her!

 

[Kiki]

Can you tell if she laid an egg today?

 

[micstrachan]

No egg evidence. But hold onto your hats, people. This is big. Margo is dust bathing under my neighbor’s tree with her flock!

 

[rebrascora]

Good news indeed! Come on Margo! No more relapses please!

 

[Kathy Golla]

I’m telling ya...if it’s a repro infection those antibiotics work like magic. Seen it myself. Cmon Margo back me up on this one!

 

[micstrachan]

So when I suggested a feather cyst, I was thinking more like it would be pressing on her spine or something. But, yeah, that seems unlikely. Here’s my dilemma… If she’s responded to the antibiotics and I’m going out of town, I’m not sure what’s going to happen.
