@aart @chickflick @Folly's place Put the snow suit on and grabbed a box of plastic gloves, a flashlight, bleach and paper towels. Dang! I felt like a CSI lady. Anyhow, might be poop but found no poop that was bloody inside. Like it was there and blood just covered it. So, before I got to work, I checked around, check every girl. Crown to toes. Nothing! None was guilty. One of them did it but they seem to outsmart me. I took pictures at the bottom of the steps. Impressive as how much blood had dripped. I scraped everything together and then reached and collected it all in the glove. I almost broke the gloves getting them out without dropping the specimen. I put more gloves and at all these I have a few of them just quietly looking at my CSI work in their coop.
Anyways, I cut every poop I got picked up and dissect it and found like it wa a poop that was in teh way of teh blood. However, there was a lot of blood. Not a opint of blood but a lot. I tookpictures. But I went to AT&T and got the SD card changed to a 1T and the pictures are in the other card. I just have to download them in my computer. However, just tried and I do not have a card reader,lol Just bought one on Amazon, so have to wait until tomorrow. But just to let you know that I am a bit concerned because I think the amount of blood was more than a finger pock for sugar testing.

Lovelies,

Back from TSC and the water bowls were clean and washed with a bit of bleach and then wash twice with Dawn to make sure any bleach is gone. Mixed Corrid unto the water and it is all placed back even though they are in bed. None is lethargic and they are doing well. However, just in case, Sally sent me a picture and I drove 15 miles in the snow to get the thing. I was a bit scared because it was thick snow. Walked in and all I did was to show the picture,lol Anyways, once I get the sd card reader, I will post the pictures but most importantly is that they are going to be treated before anything bad happens to any of them. I watched a few on you tube and is seems like some blood in the poop. Hoever, this looked like one got a toes cut out.
If God allowes, the will be ok in a few days. I do not have a way of getting the crap out of the coop but will use trash bags and collect all the wood chips and straw that I can to make sure that if it is a bacteria, it is not in their area.
I do know that the walkway to the run is open to an area where my dog goes and do her thing. When they were out free rangng, there was never a problem. However, All I can think of would be that one pecked at dog poop. Other than that I have no clue as to how it happened.
Will keep you posted. Back to Google and download videos which I left for last because they take more time. Love you and can't wait to meet you in a few months.

~Hugs~and~Kisses~

Some robins do stay all year. Seeing red-winged blackbirds and Sandhill cranes are a good indicator of Spring coming. With the amount you saw, though, we can hope!

 

[chickflick]

I saw robins in the nature center where I took my walk on Sat. Not all follow the rules. Some stay. Red winged blackbirds are a good sign and the vultures.
Dream, with the blood dripping down the board like that I would think a toe nail. No blood anywhere on the body so it's not comb.

I don't have a picture, but I saw 60+ Sandhill Cranes in a picked cornfield on Monday Feb. 7. I was surprised as we don't usually see them until the first of March.

That is early! Cranes come back here usually later in February. maybe an early spring?
