Got a bunch of things for the chickens today at rural king. I needed supplies for the 'Breakfast of Champions' layer feed on the Fresh Eggs Daily blog. I still haven't found probiotic powder or Thomas labs brewers yeast and garlic powder, which I'll probably have to order. I also got things to make her orange coop cleaner this weekend. You let it sit for a month and then you can use it, so I figure it will be just about springtime by the time it's ready. Hazel, the white Silkie is still in the dog carrier recovering from her bumble foot which I will post about later. She is doing really well, but has had 2 accidents when I get her out of the carrier to redo her bandage. Wow the smell is whoooeeee! It drove Dave out of the bedroom the other night.
The temperatures are warming up around here and the snow is melting. Its now a nice muddy mess, but at least the chickens have their waterer back in their coop and no more frozen water each hour.
I'm really anxious for the day when my chickens can have a nice fenced in backyard to free range during the day or at least when I get home in the early evenings. Happy chickens=tasty eggs!
I am also working on my chicken binder with different sections and a whole lot of notes. I have quite a few handwritten notes that I wrote last year when I first got my chicks. I'm excited about it, I love organization!
