We lost one of our Araucana pullets yesterday. Such a sad loss. My 15 year-old daughter has been working with them and they are very friendly with us. She started to feed another hen with a dropper, in hopes to solve the issues. We believe they have worms and we are treating them with apple cider vinegar. They enjoyed being outside yesterday.
After 6 hours of weeding and tilling and harvesting the garden, I spent the night in bed with my foot up. Yep, I did it again. It hurts so bad I can't walk on it. Between that muscle (I can't remember what the doctor called it) and my sciatic nerves, I won't be able to do much this week. This is not a good thing.
I did start another batch of goat's milk ricotta cheese. It will need to be rinsed today and put in the refrigerator. I hope to make (or have a daughter make) lasagna with it.

stay off that foot if you can. I guess you'll be getting to knit a little bit more too. sorry to hear about the chick.
We started out with 13 and are down to 11.
The people on the corner had about 35 or so ravaged by a bobcat! That is so close to home. I try to make sure mine are put up early and let out late!
take care, Pat
We use most of our goat milk ricotta in lasagna or Hillbilly lasagna (spaghetti noodles instead of the lasagna noodles).
That's a bummer about your foot and sciatic too! Take it easy and hopefully it will start getting better.
Good luck! Hope you feel better!
