Space Chick Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Good evening all *Waves* Debs is pleased to report that Dorothea has had her first free range session today Tegan was too much of a wuss However, I was cleaning out the poo trays, and then topping them up with hemcore from the nesting box, and Rose decided to jump out of the nest box door closely followed by Donna I was expecting issues, so ran inside for a water pistol, there was one mini bit of nastiness between Dorothea and Donna, but a quick squirt and they were fine, in fact, Donna ran away from Dorothea after that I then let Dorothea (Dodo) and Tegan (Baby T) have the run of the WIR, and let big Suze in with them, big Suze was scared stiff of Dodo and ignored Baby T I also think that Nyssa may have a softie on the way, as she has been quite hunched up, and seemed uneasy on her feet (she fell over twice when she tried to run). I am hoping its nothing more sinister However, logic would say with her having just come into lay, she may get the odd softie until she gets into the swing of things. I am just more nervous after losing Martha after only 3 eggs. I breathe a size of relief when they lay number 4, silly I know I am going to keep a close eye on her. The only other thing I think, is that she has insisted on sleeping on the perch the last 2 nights and has again today , she still has her appetite though and wolfed down some mealworms, so thats good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Accidental intro's are the best! Glad there wasn't any major upsets How was the conference?

Space Chick Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 The conference was good thanks, there were some excellent speakers. The 3 sessions that were best were 1 on Palliative Care, 1 on patient/carer focus (which had patients and carers doing the talk) and one on genetics. Can't wait to see the pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their undercarriages are a little muddy at the moment as they decided to get to the "good" grass via the old dustbath that is a tad flooded Glad to hear things went reasonably smoothly with your FR Debs! Big Suze rocks!!!! And happy thoughts for Nyssa, perhaps she is just a bit hormonal after all this egg laying lark Well this longer days are great!!! I ran out of the office at 5 on the dot tonight and got home in time for a bit of free ranging with the girlies Everybody was out, even the newbies, Bella and Nessie and apart from Brandy being her usual bolshy self it went GREAT!

Sheilaz Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 You're a hero Fred, metal poles can't swim. Hope you have dried out and don't catch cold. Surreal thought; we lost our metal pole at badminton, has it run away & taken up swimming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
