UUUUgh. Every possible chicken illness all at one time. WTH is going on?
I can't even decide which to treat first. I keep a clean coop, change my shoes, keep others out, keep a close eye on them. Geesh. I imagine it is because I freerange and live next to a wetlands (so many wild birds here). Well, I am going out to see who in the flock needs what. Might be a few weeks before I get back on here. At least all of the youngins' are healthy. I think those that were dropped off in the "chicken drive by" and mingled before I could catch them and get them quarantined might have brought this in. Why do people think they are doing you a favor when they dump extra chickens in your yard (and don't even tell you about it)?
Add to it my father in law had a heart attack and is now at Columbia having surgery
, we had to cancel our vacation plans for this week to attend to my mother in law (first vacation we would have in 10 years)
... I am a cranky pants, sorry to vent. At least we have our health, my bills are paid, and my garden is loaded with tomatoes... better to try to keep it simple I guess.
