Nunny, looks like you have a house chicken.

Not that I need another ill bird but I wish she had a chicken friend. I’m hoping to set up a hospital area in the coop and make that her home. I don’t mind her in the house but I know she needs a flock. Or at least something else feathered like her.

I haven't updated on Glayds in a while. Worried I'll jinx it.

She's standing. Well, as much as Glayds can stand. I know it doesn't look like much but for a little while she wouldn't even lift herself off her legs. I know she won't ever be a normal chicken again. I really thought about culling her. But she seems ok mentally. She talks and happily splattered me with some applesauce earlier. She's eating like a champ and pooping like one too. If I thought she was depressed I'd end it for her but she really acts like a chicken.

She looks happy and sweet.
 
I need some help. I don't know if you all remember me posting about my D'ucclle that starting sneezing during her first big molt last fall and she hasn't stopped. She has been sneezing ever since. No watery eyes, no nasal discharge.....she ears and drinks and lays lots of eggs ( well not right now cuz nobody's laying right now). I've brought her in several times over the last month or so as she was miserable during her molt. Well she is in the house again. Sneezing and a little gurgling ( this is nothing new). I've done Vet RX, colloidal silver, vitamin water and nothing seems to make any difference. So.....I finally decided to order some Baytril. It's coming today and I have NO idea how to administer it. I want to give it to her orally but after reading many articles online I can't figure out how much to give her. HeLp.....I'm mathematically challenged and the whole ml thing confuses me.

So talk to me people.....talk to me like I'm a 10 yr old with a short attention span.

YOUCH!
That's a bad way to start the day! I hope it doesn't go hurting all day.


I am up and reasonably functional.

More wind for us today. I am hoping that I can get some more good fun time outside for the pup. She likes to run and play in the sunshine.

One thing I need to address is a neighbors cat harassing my chickens.
I finally got a good look at the cat yesterday. Its a big buff color cat with a blue collar.
I had been running out several times a day to panic in the coop.......I heard it go over the fence a few times.
Live trap and a ride to the pound. No I don't tolerate loose cats. I get really sick of finding cat poop in my garden beds.
:sick
