Ribh's D'Coopage

A fracture doesn't seperate both parts of the bone. A break does. That's what I've been told when my bones have been broken.:confused:
Hmm. When the two bits of bone separate it is called a displaced fracture. I think break and fracture are the same thing and you don’t want either of them!
 
Total cuteness overload! 🥰🥰
Love all the dish-mops together under the tree. Also love that it is going so well.
Thank you for sharing!

Yes, mostly the Littlies hung together. No~one strayed far from their group. Slow & steady does it.
 


Medh has been to the vet again. She is not a well chicken. Temp; bit of blood in her droppings, hugely swollen belly & not really eating or drinking.

I can't afford x~rays which might show a blockage or tumour ~ I just don't have unlimited funds or even a regular income ~ but probably not Ascites . Possibly a touch of cocci brought about by whatever else is ailing her. Possibly egg peritonitis. She is on a broad spectrum antibiotic & the vet gave her a shot of something to make her feel better.

She is a lovely little chicken & was super well behaved throughout her examination. Given she's a Campine that's almost @ miracle status!

The vet will bring something over to treat everyone for cocci. I had terrible trouble getting Amprolium last time & this time the Littlies got treated 1st before I ran out.

My vet is really nice & enjoys talking chicken. :D Last time I showed her my new acquisitions & like most people she was charmed. They are very pretty chickies! She keeps chickens herself, always a bonus, & wanted to know where I had acquired mine. I didn't have the information on me so wrote it down for her this time & she was thrilled I had remembered her interest & got the information for her. She has finally talked her hubby into building her a nice big coop ...🤣🤣🤣...don't we all know this story...& hopes to have pictures to show me next visit. So despite my worry about Medh it was a really nice visit & she's very good with my chickens. Gentle & doesn't spook them.

I am hopeful that this will clear up what's ailing her. :hugs:hugs I'm glad you have someone who can help.
 
That is best. You are doing great!

Thanks Bob. It helps my older girls are so laid back. Everyone is out together again this morning & I'm not supervising ~ but no kerfuffles so far.
