buffie Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 Thanks she is settling in well, little pecks from Lottie (she has a short memory). Noticed that hollie is sneezing today and abit sleepy at times but given her aconite as I wonder if it's a shock type of thing She is eating though and no nasal discharge BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 One or other of my chooks is sneezing at the moment - they've got runny noses from the cold Glad to hear that she is settling in well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffie Posted January 27, 2006 Author Share Posted January 27, 2006 Ah that's good to know, it's very cold poor things. Hollie is all puffed up! BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 Mine all look like little pom poms at the moment! Phil just called to say that he was putting the chooks away, and that Dolly had managed to get her superb hairdo wet and was cold and bedraggled - what should he do about it. He has gone to get my hair dryer for her. I have had to rig up temporary water facilities for the newbies, and Dolly keeps knocking it over herself Luckily clare* has been to Omlet to get supplies, and will be bringing them over tomorrow - I have ordered a new 'glug' water container. I do wonder whether she will be able to use it hough, what with her bouffant hair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cate in NZ Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 I've been looking at the "Glug" too Clare, very tempted to buy one. Does it always come with the Grub container though, because I really don't need one of those? Do let me know if your girls are able to use it well please, as I'm after another water container, and was poised to order a conventional feeder from one of the online poultry suppliers, but if the Glug works well it'd look better in my eglus than a conventional one. And I could then justify the p&p expense by ordering a mat at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 They come seperately Kate - there was a link from the last newsletter, and you can get them on their own. I'll let you knwo how I get on with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
