Drama in the high winds and an injury
HW brought in a chick in the morning with a lower-body injury. It didn't have the use of its left leg, although I couldn't figure out exactly what was wrong. I wrapped it up while HW held it (a little chicken cast), and then it stretched out and fell asleep. Even with its head hanging off. Later on, discolouration and swelling let me know it was a broken foot/ankle, and I put a proper splint on it. Hopefully, in a tiny soft boned chick, it will fully heal, even if I don't have it lined up exactly right.
Raptor stage
They're not cute anymore. They're in their awkward, ugly stage; plenty of feathers yet not quite enough. They look raggedy, a little half-plucked.

I may not make a blog post every day, but at least I Insta.
