Number 5 I'm thinking.

This is little guy that got me roped into the Uggo business, since Mrs Robinson was the "extra in my "I know you only want one, but here's another one for you" from Mom2, lol) So, yeah... I'm pretty sure this dude is a dude. Right? Anyway, his name is "The Doctor". If you know what that means we can be friends. Even if you don't, we can still be friends. We just won't watch TV together.

The Doctor is,,,,
are you ready for this? You may need a pen and paper.

The Doctors' biological mother is a Sizzle (silkie/frizzle) and the FATHER.. is

One of those white Naked Necks that you see in the picture up there.
Their parentage is
The Doctors biological mother and a Turken father.

Went to Keyt's today and ordered another coop from her BF.He was in the process of building one. I tell you guys, if anybody needs a coop he REALLY builds nice ones. And for the time and the work he puts into one the price is very reasonable. I am really happy with the one I already bought from them.

The little sizzle that you see posted above actually kicked Chimichanga's butt today. He put the moves on her, and she not only pecked him, she drop-kicked him repeatedly with both feet way up in the air, then chased after him snatching feathers.

And he ran just like a bowling ball.

Ok, a few days after typing that i started penicillin shots anyway, since that was the only medicine available on short notice.

the first 2 days went ok, at .50 doses. the third day i couldn't get the needle in for anything, gave up. 4th day did ok. i stopped there because i read that you should only give it up to 5 days. Looked like it was healing, so i left it alone.

Started swelling, a liquid swelling on the ankles and top of foot between toes..... So i put her back on the penicillin but this time at .75 the first 4 days and 1 ml the 5th (going by another article that stated up to 1 ml for up to 10 days)

Am i going too far? is the liquid swelling because of the healing and her bumping around, or does it sound bad?
A different antibiotic???? Any help would be appreciated. I also found out today that she has roundworms or something similar, and i wonder if that is hindering her healing.

Again, any help is appreciated.....

That was MY kid, Kayla- and Penelope goose following her around everywhere...
*sigh* I love them. I miss my Goosers so so so much.

Huh! Neat. Why don't you have them anymore?

I can deliver but it will cost you. I am no longer taking payment in Uggos. skunks or ducklings.

And one more thing...poor crippled DH needs a bit of TLC.

Fuzzybutt-

I wish I could help. Time to post some pictures for everyone to see what you are dealing with.



Nigellas-

because they are LOUD-
and everything is illegal here. Very illegal.
AND I loved them. Henry was my baby, Penelope was Kaylas. I could have probably got away with keeping the girls Penelope and Libby, but that would have meant sending Henry off all alone, and he loved his girlfriends.

SO, they went to Goose Paradise at Yorkchicks before I lost all of them.

I have used Penn. for 10 days on sheep and cattle but never on a chicken. Didn't even know you could. Sorry, wish I could help you.

Because she took a picture, remember?

It will cost me...thats fine. I have plenty of cats.

And if crippled DH needs TLC, he shouldnt be so demanding.."Lift my pillow! Get me a pain pill!" "Let the dog out!"

ETA:
Randy I read your post to my hubby, and he said, "yes yes I agree- do you know anyone who would give him some TLC?"
