Thank you for the update! I'm really glad to know Pepper is in good spirits and even laying eggs despite her infirmities. If/when anything changes, please give another update.

Quick update now, more to come in a couple days....

I noticed this afternoon, her "pinkie" toe is hanging on by a piece of skin.... the other two look like they will be coming off together in the next couple days.

We tried to "help" the toe but she wasn't too crazy about the idea so we left ir be for now. I'll take a look at it again tomorrow and see. If it seems to be causing issues, we will likely just give thst dead skin a little clip and get it over with. I just don't want it dangling around or getting in the way of her walking and whatnot.

I'll post again soon and share some pics of the new "look".... hahah!!

Thanks for keeping in touch, it's nice to have another chicken-person to talk about these things with, especially someone who has been in my shoes!!
