I turned an old unwanted chest of drawers into a small cozy coop. The only thing I bought was wire. Everything else was unwanted wood I got by asking around. The run has wheels on the other side and handles on the side by the coop so I can move it around the yard. Front side of the coop opens up for easy cleanin acess

Not mine

So I noticed this afternoon that one of my Brahma pullets had yuck in her eyes.. Picked her up and gave her a once-over...

WORST case of lice I think I've EVER seen..

I felt HORRIBLE. Like the worst chicken mom ever. But anyway, I treated everyone with Permethrin.. More thoroughly than I usually do (I usually only dust vents). Went out a bit ago to recheck everyone since it's been a couple of hours and only found dead/dried up mites, EXCEPT on the pullet that was the worst. I figured out why her eyes were dirty. She had several teensy tiny ones around her eyelids

.

So, I went back over her just a tad more, putting a little puff on the back of her head, under each wing and on her breast. I was very careful not to have her breathing it but my GOSH. She did fall asleep on her side in my lap with all the petting and attention Sweet baby..

Like I said, worst mom ever.

Went out again at 6 and looked over all of the bantams. Only a couple had maybe one or two (literally) visible but I treated everyone anyway.

So weird, why would the Brahmas have them so much worse? I mean the bantams are fuzzy-butts too.

Anywho, guess what I'll be out doing again this time next week...

Got a pic of one MFD girl's pretty speckles. Again, can't get enough of these DANG birds lol. @PapaChaz, how are yours looking? Seems like I asked you a bit ago but I'm not sure I did.

It is official. Old age has replaced youthful fearlessness. I think I have just cleaned gutters for the last time.

I work with someone who took a terrible spill cleaning his roof just after the new year. He's still unable to work a full schedule and has to be helped but is improving.. It's dangerous!

The funny thing is I am not afraid of heights per se. I still love looking at views from airplanes and mountains. What is the fancy word for "fear of falling and being paralyzed less than 7 years from retirement"?

Oh been there done that. How about this gem. One Christmas I let my now X then hubby tie a rope around my waste toss it over a 2 story roof line and stand on the other side of the house holding the end in case I fell while hanging Christmas lights.

Oh dear!

Mr Carcar's brother was working up on a roof years ago.. With a wheelbarrow. Came up over the peak and off he went.. Broke an ankle and BOTH wrists. Lived with Mama for a while after that, if you can use your imagination there..
