I had an unexpected scare today. There was a flight of 15 to 20 vultures above, which often happen here, especially during hunting season. I wasn't worried because I was convinced they didn't attack chickens, and was taking photos of the younger chickens on the roof of the water shed. I turned around for a minute, heard a whoof and turned back to see a huge bird landing about ten meters from the chickens . I ran screaming at it while the chickens ran and flew the other way to go back to their "safe" place under the laurel tree. It took them an hour to come out. I'm not sure if this was an attack air just a random landing but it was pretty stressing for all.
Cannelle seemed slightly better, but I think that was the medication. However this evening she refused to eat in the egg and tuna mix so I'll have to find something else. @RoyalChick there is nothing visible either on the foot or leg, although if it was very small we would not see it because we can't hold her for more than thirty seconds. And it's really the nail she's pecking at. Maybe if she keeps doing it I'll try iodine at night.
Other highlight of the day included Gaston mating Piou-piou, poor girl.
And, zero egg today, which has only happened once or twice !
And we finished the definite securing of the right part of the run. We still have the entrance to do.
Léa found the sunflowers drying
Piou-piou is turning so pretty
Cannelle not so well in the evening
Chipie has almost finished growing back feathers- she's looking much better.
Cocorico
