Happy Caturday all

Here she is cuddling on my chest. She sleeps here.

It's OK if I walk on top of the headboard right?

A few seconds later she knocked a lamp on Mrs BY Bob's head.

I should not have laughed, but I did.

You do know they've been free ranging together for over a month.... It's not like I'm dumping a whole heap of birds who don't know each other together.

I do but it is more fun this way.

So far so good. The sun is up & all the birds are downstairs. The Littlies have found the food & water & we have no major dramas & almost no pecking. @BY Bob.

Of course not.

I've been saying for a while I've not been happy about Gloriana.
Not sick, just not as sassy as I thought she used to be. Not pecking everybody like she used to. Not foraging quite as she used to. Not running with the Vorwerks like she used to. I picked her up the other night & she felt super light, much lighter than her sister, Portia, who is the same age. She eats enough &
She's a Wyandotte ~ a dual purpose bird. She is meant to be a big heavy girl.

So I carted her inside. At least with all the handling she is accommodating & I've not got a large, angry chook batting @ me & screaming her head off. That would be the Vorwerks. First a shot of vitamins. Never goes astray. I wormed her with the rest of the flock but after Shad's warnings I suspected worms probably. More likely than not the worming treatment hadn't worked with her. I dug around in my chook kit to see what I had. Yep, a few tablets left! I know they're super effective so I shoved 1/2 a one down her throat & put her back with the girls.

Today I happened to be right there when she dropped a poop so I rushed over to investigate. Only a Chickeneer understands another chickeneer's obsession with chook poop. And there they were! Thread worms! Nice & dead so I'm hoping I've solved Gloriana's problem. She's certainly been more herself today.
Just look @ that face! Watch out Chookies!

Excellent work my fellow chickeneer! You did good.

He's worth his weight in gold.

Indeed. All our flocks have benefited from his knowledge and assistance. We are so lucky he picked us to hang with.

Good morning Grammy. It's OK to miss him. Just try to remember the good times with him.
