Omg! That's it! She's trying to roo, that is why she's yanking combs and being a tater. I totally forgot you were rooless. Beer that woman!View attachment 1457669 View attachment 1457670 View attachment 1457671

Good afternoon everyone! I finally caught up from the great crash last night. I was too busy this morning to spend time catching up.

One of the 6 chicks I hatched last week died. I think the day of being picked on by hens and not knowing how to drink out of a rabbit bottle did it in. I was thinking it might not survive because it was smaller and slower than the other 5 it hatched with. It's still sad though.

Awww. Poor little one.

Guess who just had to buy some acidified copper sulfate? Meeeee! The joys of buying weird crap just never end do they?

The ACS is for Lulu, not only is she broody and dirty she's got some stuff going on in her beak. So I got that and some zole....no extra sanity for sale on ebay, very sad.

I need to kill off this Polish rooster tonight. He flogged me for the last time, do i gut him first or pluck feathers first? Been a long time since i processed a bird.

Scald, pluck, eviscerate...

Rupert Jehosaphat!! Congrats on your new job! Very happy for you!

Ok gotta ask... When in NOLA did you learn to pinch tail and suck head?

Rosie update.

Ok so I gave her some cbd oil this morning.
4-5 drops actually got in her.
Much more got on me, because it’s “fragrant”.

She’s stoned.
Or she was.
Because she was complaining about being allllllll alone, starting about 30 minutes after I gave it to her (8am) until after 12 noon.
Like a drunken sailor trying to sing.

Except uh.... she was trying to crow.
Im in a neighborhood that doesn’t allow chickens let alone roosters.

Gonna have to try the beer.

Can’t have a CROWING,
NASTY hen.

Ok, is this in the same class as my neighbor feeding his deer crown?

They are just turning 18 months old.
Is that about when this can happen?

I have to say though, Rosie has always been a... the least feminine of the group.
Think Marla Hooch in a League of Their Own.
