The saga of the twisted neck

Right After Thanksgiving, Olivia, Emma's chicken got a weird condition that affected her neck control and she couldn't eat or drink on her own for weeks...she couldn't walk either so we had to bring her into the house and keep her in a dog kennel and hand feed and water her.  As you can see she finally got better, but it has taken lots of work and crushing vitamins and hand feeding them to her...now as soon as it warms up hopefully we can get her back outside with the flock at night too.  For now she sleeps inside and when it gets above 25 or so I put her out with the others to reintegrate her with them.

About Me

I'm a mom of 4 great kids that make me smile and appreciate life every day. I am married to the best husband ever. He always puts me first and the kids next. We are the luckiest family ever. I love playing the piano, drawing and painting, redecorating our house, and most of all spending time with our family. However lately I just can't get enough of spending time outside in our yard planting and weeding...I'm adding trees and perennials this year. Cuddling up with books or spending time outside are a few of our favorite past-times.
