MJ's little flock

[MaryJanet]

Oh dear. This is so distressing. I do hope there's nothing wrong with Peggy.

She continues to lay regularly and show her usual ocean of attitude. But yeh, I'm worried about her dark poops.

I really need to do a bit of gardening stuff out the front. I've got a corn field growing from the chicken feed I assume.

They are excellent gardeners. I have had seeds sprout between the boards on my deck.

Janet is going to the vet tomorrow and Peggy is coming along for the ride.

Janet's having her gammy eye checked because it doesn't seem much better after a week of lincospectin and Peggy's poo is a little too dark for comfort since she started laying again.

Mary and Ivy appear to be in good health.

I will be worried until I hear good news. I know you will keep us posted.

As soon as we're home and they're comfy again, I'll provide an update. The appointment is at noon, so an update will come about an hour later, ie roughly 24 hours from now.

I promise to stay up late, if I can.

I’m sorry to hear more if your girls have issues. Why is dark poo a problem, or is that just not her normal colour?

I've only been reading the internet, so my knowledge is extremely sketchy, but it could be nothing or it could be an internal bleed or it could be coccidiosis. Or it could be something Google can't find.

Blossom: Snoozing zzzzz
Me: ...
Me: Ask a silly question...
