MJ's little flock

[LozzyR]

That is an awful thought!
I got up at 4:30am this morning to go check crops. Maggie has had diarrhea for a while but her poop got a clean bill of health from the vet and it is improving on its own. Then yesterday Dotty also had diarrhea that looked like Minnie's did when her crop was stuffed up.
I pulled Dotty off the roost to have a good feel around. She was not happy, but her crop was nice and empty. Then I felt everyone else's crop while they stayed on the roost. All empty.
As I was getting ready to go into the Chicken Palace, donning my headlamp etc. I kept hearing a half crow. Do chickens have nightmares? I think someone was crowing in their sleep!

Are you treating diarrhoea in any particular way RC? Tegan did a rather splatty poop that looked like it had pellets in it. I’m not sure if any moulting is still going on, should I be checking for anything else?

That passed through her quickly!

As Maggie’s poo was clear of any nasties, and they all seem to be feeling fine I am just giving probiotics and hoping for the best.

For me too, because it's within reach of the wifi signal.

I haven't got a signal booster yet.

Good evening folks

Approval for the veranda rebuild came through yesterday I reached out to the builder to see if he needs anything from me before the next step. I haven't heard back yet, but I'm sure to at some point.

Excellent! So exciting!

Just one or several days worth of splatty poops?

A signal booster is magnificent when you have 20 pages of BYC to get through and the girls want to know all the gossip.
