So sorry about the shoulder. Check out how to avoid frozen shoulder. We didn't know shoulders are different than other joints and ended up with a year of very painful physical therapy as a result.

Yeah, frozen shoulders are a bugger. Better to keep it moving instead of letting it rust up. Breaking it loose is not fun.

It will be interesting to see what happens with college football. I just watched the Ohio state/Minnesota game. The stadium was packed. I was suppose to take my 82 yo dad the osu game next weekend. We opted not to go. I would not be able to live with myself if dad got covid.

Yeah, going to be really interesting the next month or so with what happens with the pandemic. At least Michigan is doing pretty well, but who knows. At least GVSU's stadium is very open and my tickets are in a corner so we're not going to be that crowded. Plus they've mandated masks inside and all students and staff members to be vaccinated.

Mom had a cancer checkup on Tuesday and the docs there approved her to go get her booster shot because she's immunocompromised.

I hope your mom stays healthy. Have fun at the game and stay safe.

Dad wasn’t crazy about having to wear a mask at the game. He said it takes the fun out of being at the horseshoe. I don’t blame him. Hopefully we can get past the craziness soon. The world seems so angry.
Have a terrific day everyone. The temperatures have been great this week. I’m hoping to burn some of the brush that came down in the storm a few weeks ago.

When I broke my wrist, no one told me to keep moving my shoulder. My PT guy was shocked that the doctor had not said something. Lots of PT on shoulder as well.

Move it or lose it is so true!

Hi my lovelies! Sorry I have been away but between the girls, the dog, the knucklehead, and exercises feels like I barely have time anymore for anything.

@aart , would this be molting?


Blanch (green egger) is the only one with this. It is full of dust because she loves getting on the dirt. I have checked cameras and watch closely and there is no sign of pecking at her except at night when they go to bed because they all fight for the same corner. They do not get the math. a square house equals 4 corners. Roosts share 2 corners. All 7 cannot be in a corner. I will have to re-built and figure out a corner for each and it is not going to happen. Also checked for mites and they are all clean and the quarters are also clear for any bugs, yeap, not even one fly!!! I think it is getting wider that area. No blood either. any advise, boss?

Looks like a few pin feathers trying to grow, but there should be more.

I know there is dirt on it but it is bigger than 2 square inches. Is that normal? She does look like has many baby feathers still and her eggs are small. ???

Man, I feel %500 better after that short nap. The last 2 days I have been in miserable shape. Now after a short nap I seem to be on the way to recovery. Still a bit of allergy-like symptoms. I can tolerate that.

What I can't tolerate very well is this shoulder/neck pain. I haven't heard what the x-ray showed. But damn, it still hurts.

So i'm going to take it easy for the rest of the day. Then tomorrow I'll take it nice and slow and get the car ready for the show on Sunday.

Looks like pecking or mating damage...common in that area.
How old is she, in weeks or months?
