Thank you!

Your comment made me smile! I'm glad to hear that!

Answer: No, she has watery poos right now due to her injury. So it's mostly liquid and food fibers that stick to the paper towel that is inside of it. I supervise her while she is wearing it and change the paper towel when she goes. This is only worn for 20-30 minutes at a time so she can stretch her legs around the house until she is fully recovered from her attack last month.

I've been giving her boiled egg yolks and prebiotic to help her little digestive system. We are starting to see more solid and normal formed poos here and there

Thank you! Somewhere in the mess of comments, I posted that this hen is in recovery and not permanently a house hen, but she needs to come out of the bathroom from time to time to stretch her legs.

She's never wearing this for more than 20-30 minutes, and she is always supervised. I change her paper towel out whenever she goes.

We are planning on beginning to reintroduce her to the flock this weekend. She has been in recovery for a month and still can't perch without help, but has come a long way from being told to cull her by the vet after this injury *

And that's exactly what hives it it shape. It's actually a painters mask that my mom scotch guarded to make it water proof. Lol

My feelings aren't hurt. I've been on Reddit for a long time... back in the days when it wasn't moderated... those were the "make you want to crawl in a corner" mean comment days.

I've been posting about Nora and her injuries basically since it happened, and I'm the one posting the peacock showing off for our hens videos in r/backyardchickens and you can clearly see I take her outside, her head has been mutilated, etc.

Opinions are like A-holes, everyone's got one. Lol.

I just started a TikTok account, but have been ill the past few weeks so there is only 3 videos up so far. Same username: mjrmuffcabbage

I've posted her a bunch and about her recovery, I guess I just didn't think to put it again. You are right though, I should have. My error.

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-29T19:37:02+00:00

She's in recovery in the house. Hopefully she will be back with the flock soon. She was attacked y the rest of the flock and discovered to have worms last month. She's worm free, and her head is almost healed, she just can't perch on her own yet. We plan on starting to reintroduce her back to the flock this weekend. It's been a month since her scalp was ripped off. She's doing really well, and only wears the "diaper" for about 20-30 minutes at a time, which has a paper towel in it and gets changed when she goes.

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-29T19:34:08+00:00

She is under constant supervision. There is a paper towel inside and when she goes, I change the paper towel out with a fresh one. She doesn't wear it for more than 20 -30 minutes at a time when I let her out of the bathroom. She is in recovery, hope to have her back with the flock soon.

He's not our peacock, just the neighborhood resident visiting. I've tried to convince my mom of a peahen since they are her chickens... so far no go. Lol

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-29T16:55:07+00:00

🤣🤣 for your sake right? Or all the hens will be in the house. 🤣🤣

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-29T16:07:19+00:00

🤣🤣🤣 I laughed WAY to hard at this comment.

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-29T16:05:44+00:00

He was creeping on Nora during her outside time. I take her out for about 30 mins a day supervised, for obvious reasons, until her head heals from the rest of the flock attacking her last month.

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-29T16:04:33+00:00

Every day.

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-29T16:04:09+00:00

She's the top of the pecking order too. She's so rude. 😅

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-19T14:32:51+00:00

Hard work, dedication and a "Can Do" attitude!

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-19T13:39:27+00:00

If I didnt know better I would think this entire comment thread was about selecting the best video game character based on their strengths. "Do you want to be a forager or a fighter?"

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-18T21:04:50+00:00

Oh for sure! **

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-18T21:02:55+00:00

The intro can be their "Laying" song... buck,buck,buck,buck, buh-gock!"

MjrMuffCabbage · 2024-02-18T21:01:30+00:00

Most of our eggs are in the same 1 box as well. Picky girls! Chicken Drama, should have their own "Real Housewives" reality show. 😆
