Boy oh boy it’s been an eventful morning around here! Made the call to let Goldie, my Serama hen, out of isolation, had her in because I thought she was sick but now I don’t think she was, still not real sure but she seems healthy and she is her usual self, so back in the flock she is. However, upon letting her out she tried to go poo and seemed to be having difficulty doing so and then I discovered her vent was sticking out, she had some prolapse going on! She laid her egg and it was still out so back in isolation she went. I brought her into the house to treat her but had to deal with my 3 year old daughter and get my hands cleaned and supplies together to help Goldie, took about 10-15 minutes. Went to deal with the vent and was pleasantly surprised to find it corrected itself!! Phew!!! So now I’m still paranoid and keep going to check on her because I know it could happen again. I pray that it doesn’t.
Then I went to my sister’s house to take care of her animals and birds because she’s on vacation and found that her Coturnix Quail fell victim to a predator last night:( Only 1 is left and he is in bad shape!
To make matters worse, it’s forecasted to be another scorcher today! Stay Cool my friends!!!
