Fly strike is gross. Hope she recovers soon.

Yes Northern NY is very beautiful, but where I'm staying is a bit too in the middle of nowhere for my tastes. I'm about a 15 minute drive from Canada. I'm up here for a dairy farm internship. Good news is I get to go home in about 2 weeks. I have had an amazing time, but I'm ready to go home...

They all got so beautiful! I especially love Archernar he is gorgeous. And the last pic of Vega and Altair is so cute. Glad to hear the weather hasn't been too bad. I am lucky to not have had much rain this summer in northern NY (where I'm living for the summer), but last week's heat was brutal.

Happy birthday! Was just starting to wonder where you've been. Glad all is well. Hope you are having a great (an hopefully not too hot) summer.

The OEGBs are so pretty :drool I cannot wait for the day I can get my own chickens again I would get so many of those. Also idk if I've said this but I love the names you've picked for the recent batch of birds. They're so mythical sounding.

I'm living in upstate New York for the summer and they are everywhere! Nasty little biters. I've never seen them in New Jersey where I normally live. I had no idea they could harm chickens.

Are buffalo gnats also called black flies? I think they're exclusive to certain regions. Sorry to hear about Iddy Biddy, especially so soon after your other bird. :(:hugs

Sorry to hear about Indigo :(:hugs

Your chicken has an extra growth on its shoulder too? :eek: Glad to know my birds aren't the only ones with this not-so-rare condition! :lol:

Unfortunately we have lot of birds and most of the money we make comes from fertile eggs. The roosters do their job in that area, so we can't really get rid of them. They tend to leave the full time manager alone (for the most part) since she's there all the time but they love to go after us...

I can't tell which one it is, there's a bunch of roosters and they all look the same. And they're all rude. :hmm Hopefully the weather is getting nicer where you are and you can take some nice spring pictures. Hope the babies are doing well.

True I didn't think of that. I was wearing jeans and I don't think he tore through my jeans, but somehow he did draw blood. Luckily I just had my tetanus booster in November so I should be okay.

The babies are growing up to be so pretty! Love the color on the silver ones. Also love the fluffy face. Hope your day has been well, and hopefully better than mine. Got attacked by a rooster at work and the jerk gave me four bloody marks through my jeans :mad: Glad to hear Crashie is getting...

Ooh OEG chicks are cute. So tiny. Have fun with them.

So cute! Little spring chicks. Those must be some tiny legbands. I know you've probably mentioned it already, but what breeds are these again? Dorkings?

Can't wait to see all the babies!

Can't wait to see the babies! Bantam chicks are so cute.

I agree the weather sucks. I have to start doing short checks late at night because the ewes at school are lambing and this weather is going to make it miserable. Frostbite sucks. Luckily most of my birds have small combs or none at all but I feel bad for everyone else's birds

Ah shoot I didn't realize! Congrats! Good luck job hunting or whatever else you have planned in the future. I'm hoping for a better semester. My classes don't seem too bad. That weather seems bad. It's supposed to be back in the 40s and 30s this week thankfully. The sidewalks are iced over on...

Stay warm! Anyways hope you had a great holiday season, break, and start of classes Pipd. I haven't been on here in a while (busy during the break and I got a new laptop and have had to dig all my passwords off the old one so it's been taking some time). I didn't get to see the moon I was too...
