Re: Aceface and The Stinkbombs !well my diary has been truly neglected but hopefully things will be back to something like normal ,whatever that is in my coop julieanns girls are well and truly settled and all part of the flock near enough straight away no fights no handbags at dawn but the little silkies are amazing a real pair of mischevoius little madams ,and a syou know my best friend lou has had a nasty fall and broken her leg and ankle in numerous places and has had to have pins and plates and with the bad weather looking to come our way I was worried about not being able to get to her hens in the snow etc without putting myself at risk so we had a think about things and big al came up with a rescue mission bless him he has offered them to stay with him until lou is back on her feet so off they went on sunday coop enclosure tarp etc and all are settled and fine .
my girls are well but Bou is having a bit of trouble with what looks like bumblefoot but it isn't acting like bumblefoot if you know what I mean LOL [center]HELPING THE LITTLE BROWN GIRLS OF THIS WORLD FIND FOREVER HOMES

Re: Aceface and The Stinkbombs !well today in acefaces coop it was bloomer washing day a couple of the girls had dirty bottoms after being wormed so the task could not be ignored any longer of course anna lou my ex batt girl was no trouble at all stood in the sink soaped up rinsed towel dried and blow dried in half an hour never batted and ex batt eyelid bless her ,but as for lana my huge grey baby well I got her into the sink after nearly having to hire a block and tackle to lift her all 8lbs and stood her in the sink my goodness what a to do wings flapping clawing up my jumper scratching like a banshee she whacked me straight in the nose with her wing and it burst like a balloon blood everywhere I got her onto the floor stopped my nose from bleeding and tried again well I was wetter than her .
she was pecking the towel trying to get away whilst I was drying her so I thought well shes not gonna tolerate the hairdryer but here goes I stood her on a fresh towel swithched it on low heat and speed and gently brought it toward her she was fine I was sat with her stood between my knees I increased the warmth and it looked like she was sagging I switched it off and her head jerked upward I thought shes going to sleep ....never I thought not after that palava ,but I did the same again and she was head nodding I couldn't believe it she did nomore than climb onto my knee tuck her head under her wing and tried snuggling up to me whilst I was drying her ,the cheeky madam , but as we have all said before they never cease to amaze me but both gilrs have nice fluffy bloomers and smell sweet [center]HELPING THE LITTLE BROWN GIRLS OF THIS WORLD FIND FOREVER HOMES

Re: Aceface and The Stinkbombs !i have been rather naughty today well me and big al we rescued some little millefleur bantams last year 4 of them their owner could no longer donate any time to them under rather sad circumstances well I couldn't say no could I so they came to live with a very good pal of mine :) and today we have found them a husband look at this little fella
https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/ ... 6660_n.jpg https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/ ... 6748_n.jpg his owner is kindly allowing us to adopt him and she knows he will have an excellent life with his new wives waiting for him he will be coming soon and I cant wait however he wont be living in my coop as I said I mean what would my frankii think to anther fella muscling in on his patch so when linda next comes to see me I will have him over for a visit and she will be able to give him a cuddle . the boys that linda returned to me n big al are all growing and doing really well they also have wives of their own and will be having little babies of their own in the spring time no doubt so frankii will then have a third generation under his belt and become a grandpa . my girls all spent the day in the garden again with golfy as he is on extended visit to us and he has been improving the Walk-in-Run today some minor repairs and and improving ventilation in the big girls coop cos those grey babies don't half push up the condensation levels now they are hitting the 8lb mark so new larger ventas have been put in and as lana is having a bit of trouble with her bumble we have removed some of the heights in the run as she loves to jump on things and we need to keep her more grounded to prevent further problems so the chick enclosure has n=been removed all perches scrubbed and pipe lagging put round the perches to make them a little softer under her feet not sure what else to do really so any suggestions are more than welcome im bathing in iodine solution and now using tea tree oil on the spot and leaving it dressing free as it isn't open and the run is dry and im powdering with stalosan every 3 days to keep any nasties down she seems a little easier without the dressing on her foot so im going to monitor it and hopefully find a way of managing it for her as it isn't behaving like bumblefoot or doing what it should be doing as an early bumble both vets which I might add are fab and hen friendly advised to treat it conservatively and see how it goes ,will keep you updated and will take more pics of the girls to show you xxx [center]HELPING THE LITTLE BROWN GIRLS OF THIS WORLD FIND FOREVER HOMES

Re: Aceface and The Stinkbombs !
ooh hes not coming to live with my frankii I couldn't possibly do that his lordship would have his handsome beak well and truly put out he is going to live at big als with our girls there ,and I know why the blooming page cant be found once a hen has found a home they remove the advert so folk are up to date with whats whats but ill get a photo of him for you lyn when I go to fetch him . no probs with the bloomers shot lyn anytime I often get good shots of the girls bloomers unintentionally I am hoping to have a chat with chook mike re lanas bumble thingy but just beforehand I have thought of trying a hibiscrub footbath and applying tea tree oil for a week with no bandage just to see if there are any improvements and no ab injections either as I don't want to pump her full of abs needlessly . all girls fine although fed up of the rain no doubt nothing exciting to report so will sign off until there is LOl [center]HELPING THE LITTLE BROWN GIRLS OF THIS WORLD FIND FOREVER HOMES

Re: Aceface and The Stinkbombs !I hope Lana's bumble behaves itself Ace, sending you and her healing vibes. Tea Tree oil is supposed to be pretty good, and I've heard good things about manuka honey too.
Putting pipe lagging on the perches is a really good idea. Mine don't perch - not even in the garden, lazy things - as they seem to prefer being on the ground but I think that's a great idea for them Karen

Re: Aceface and The Stinkbombs !
mine don't perch at bed time Karen but use perches in the run to preen on usually so ive done it just in case but as for the honey I did think of that as they treat sores with it in some cases but as they enjoy honey in their porridge I was freaky about her nibbling her foot [center]HELPING THE LITTLE BROWN GIRLS OF THIS WORLD FIND FOREVER HOMES

Re: Aceface and The Stinkbombs !Hey Ace
I didn't think about that! Maybe put it under the bandage (if you're still wrapping the foot) so she can't get at it? It's supposed to be special grade manuka honey though I think? Karen
