    Posted this over in the "Front Porch" thread as well: Well folks... I need some advice. In recent weeks I have noticed that one of my RIR girls has developed some sort of respiratory issue; rattly breathing, clear nasal discharge and the occasional bubbly clear liquid in one eye and occasional...

    I think you're right, Bee... It looks like there is some red in the points below the very tip so keeping my fingers crossed ! Thanks, Lisa ! :)

    Thought I'd give a little update on Rodney's frost bitten comb. After applying 2 or 3 good coats of castor oil I think his comb is looking a lot better. Just a few white/yellowish tips that he'll likely lose, but no infection and his comb has bounced back really good from what it was ...

    Exactly the same thing here, Bee. During the cold snap I got 13 one day from 13 girls. The last day or so warmed up and I was back to 7 out of 13 girls... So strange how that works. One would think it would be just the opposite.

    Thanks, BCM. At least there is one positive thing about the frostbite, once they are dubbed there won't be anything to frostbite next year !

    I do believe the CO has worked wonders for Rodney and I'm gonna give him another good slather before the temps drop again !

    Hi Bee... Rod's comb is no worse for the wear. His tips are pretty much all yellow now and I see he has lost one tip near the back of his comb. He has had no further frostbite damage in this latest bout of cold weather so I think that CO is doing the trick. He'll likely lose most of his tips...

    I hear ya, Bee ! Yesterday I reported getting 13 eggs for the first time from 13 ladies and today in a seriously blinding blizzard and absolute freezing cold temps, not to mention being confined to the coop all day long, my girls gave me 11 eggs !! :weee This keeps up and I'll be laying an...

    Not sure why they decided to lay in this cold weather but boy am I glad they did ! I slathered a good glorp of CO on his comb tonight and I'm hoping it will help against this biting cold ! If I bring Rod in for movie and popcorn then I better do it while the other half is away or else I'll be...
