Show off your Delawares! *PIC HEAVY*

Those Dels, always causing a ruckus. Kira is causing me grief today! Just spent over 30 minutes trying to stop a comb point bleeding on Isaac. After putting no-pick on him and letting them out to freerange, She grabbed that same point and pulled again. SO much blood was pooling under the blade, we realized she had almost pulled the entire comb OFF! At the back of the base of the comb under the blade, it is completely separated from his head! So, he is in the broody pen, having a fit to get out, naturally, but we can't let him out with the girls right now. Good grief, they are so bad to their men! Isaac was an angel throughout the entire thing, really. We had to cauterize the tip of that point, just like we did the other one when she did the same dang thing. It's a good thing that Isaac is such a sweetheart. The Barred Rock girls used to do the same thing to Dutch.

Kira is a bad bad girl! She needs a spanking for hurting that boy.

Cetawin,
Thanks for trying to help me, but even what you said is beyond my capability. Do you hit post reply first and then try? I have the picture under "My Uploads" with two things underneath it, I right clicked the second thing, which said image, but I can't copy it to anything. I am sorry I am SUCH a dumb bell when it comes to computers, but I hated the things until a few years ago and am woefully behind everyone else.

Joletabey, I think I can help! Where it says image under the picture, right click in the box and click on cut. Then, when you hit reply, right click in the text box and hit paste. Same instructions, lol. Tell me if that helps

Oh, wait, in a friendship type way, ya know. . .

Cetawin- thank you, though, you got me half way there!

 

[speckledhen]

Yeah, SuperChick lives! Can't believe we almost didnt even try to save it. Good job, Chicken-Mom Beth!

Thank you, Cyn- he/she is really doing well - just a little behind in developing size and feathers, perhaps due to having to spend so much energy sorting out his innards? I hope to get up a few more pics so you can see some of the rest of your grandkids! They are feathering out nicely,I think - lots of variation in the markings so far.
I hope Isaac heals up - gosh, there is such a thing as being TOO nice - Isaac, you need to keep your ladies acting like ladies!!!
