Yea, and she would only take $25. Lucky me! I really wanted Silver Laced Cochins!

Silver laced cochin, and black silkie, is what he said. The other grey cochin almost looks birchen, is she a variation of silver laced? They are 15 weeks old.

I don't recall getting hit in the jaw, but If I open my mouth wide when I yawn, it pops back out. I have to push on the joint as I close it to have it line up correctly, otherwise I can't quite get my teeth to meet. Normal conversation does not bother it, and the pain is really subsiding. I'm not ready to bite a carrot. but the constant jaw pain is now gone. I don't even think it hut at all this morning, but last night I could not find a comfortable way to sleep - like my jaw is too loose and falls too much to either side with gravity which either pushes or pulls at the left hinge.

How did you get the muscles to tighten?

I recall , several times, with quite a few pateints each...their coming in to the Oral Surgery Office where I worked...making the appoinment ahead of time............and in they came, and I would seat them & take patient info...so here sits this 24 year old thin woman with her mouth open & unable to close it...and after so much time the mastication muscles were rigid !
Bare in mind, she had seen her Dentist a day before & was referred.
She could not close her mouth.
More Common than you think.
I let Dr Johnson know...and he went in to see her & massaged & manipulated her Temoral mandibular joint & mastication muscles to relax...and she shut her mouth.
By now she hurt bad !
He gave her instructions & home she went...only to reappear the next day in an emergency appoinment.......once again walking about, mouth wide open & stuck.
There have been many many patients in just that sort of scenario~~~~~~~
Getting muscles to tighten is really not hard...small exercisies to "clentch" or "occlude"
What is bad is trying to get them to loosen.
The mastication muscles are the hardest voluntary muscles we have in our bodies !
Crushing muscles !
Massage, warm paks...manipulation, bio feed back, lower stress, and as said before, avoid the gum chewing.


Edited to add:::: It does not hurt to RELAX and have a few nice glasses of wine.
Things that are bad::::: STRESS especially bottled up stress, kids, screaming , fighting with spouse/kids/co workers/traffic.
You get my drift.

I'm headed to the kitchen to pour out my orange soda and pour me some wine. If I can't find any, it will be whiskey. Not sure what I will dilute that with, I don't like it straight. I have V-8 or milk. I'm thinking V-8!
