    In stead of sand I throw a bale of fine shavings into the dust bath pit for them. Big hit! I might forgo sand and just go with the shavings from now on.

    Falling Down Heights, my daily life

    What's the temperature where you are???

    -9C (16F) clouding over when I came in around 7pm. Snow on the way and a warm up - finally! Overnight temps still cold, it will be at least a month before overnight temps start to approach the freezing point regularly. Everyone have a wonderful evening/night/day!

    Breezy Bird Farm south of Winnipeg has them & sells eggs. Road trip…. Get eggs, share with Bob…. Better still get eggs, hatch and get pullets for Bob. Eggs don’t chirp so you’ll get them across no problem 😉 (Yes I am an enabler and proud of it!) We all love Elsa 🥰 and the zebra chickens...

    Squishy and watery. I hope she doesn’t have more crop stasis. The canestin is a cream, I give 1cc daily. She is in the feedroom again today along with Daisy (story to come on her…), I would have kept Mrs LC in there too, but I don’t have any other crates. I am going to revamp the Summer...
