Koke'e is also a lot cooler for all. So glad you are winning the war. Parasites are the worst to get rid of. So many kitties! A friend of mine adopted a cat from Kona. similar to how yours are flown out.
Need your opinion, or experiences. 4 pullets are roosting together in my apple tree ( the tree is inside the protected area). Now that the weather is dry, it seems to be ok, but is it? Do you think I should wrangle them and put them in the coop nightly? Or let weather get them inside, when it...
Sounds like she could have the same issue as your Maude. Todsy she seemed a little more chipper. Day by day observations. I keep expecting her to be gone, and she's still hanging in there.
Having geriatric fur babies are hard on us as we see them age and have related health issues. You have beautiful kids who have had quality lives with you. May you have the summer with them, and peace as you come to the time to release them.

Day before yesterday the girls batted 1000. 6 eggs, 6 hens. Even Onyx laid one. She seems to be a once a week girl for now, until she fully recovers from the vampires, which no longer seem to be present. Yay! The permethrin and tearing off the panels has worked. How is everyone? and if you are...
Back when they were allowed run of the yard, my son got them trained to go to the vines Before I knew it, they were flying up to any they could reach on the horizontal ones they could perch on. Little stinkers. They don't like bananas.
This time a leghorn pullet was hanging in the same spot in the netting. Not moving, I thought the worst, but she was alive. DH helped get her unstuck. I took that area of netting away. I think they wanted to get up in the tree, and got stuck coming down. She just had a couple abrasions, one...
