Wow. That's good to know. I've never experienced either condition in a hen, but it's good to have this info.

I think I've had a sense of humour failure as I also couldn't read to the end. When some people are having to use food banks..... I’m not saying this to be controversial but I get that feeling whenever I read of anyone spending what must be considerable sums of money on vets fees for a poorly chick...

Liked the gold toilet. The poshest one I ever saw was by the Tomas Crapper Company- contrary to popular opinion TC didn't invent the flushing toilet, just the ballcock and the water trap parts. The nicest ones I've ever seen are in a Castle converted to a hotel! They are "antique" (is there such th...

My two cats are "special needs" and have to be indoor only. They are both on a veterinary diet (urinary). That's as far as I go with "pampering". I read about the gold loo, Marigold. You'd have to wonder why anyone thought a gold loo was a good idea in the first place. I mean, does it give people so...

Took me forever, and when doing the motif, there were five or six bobbins of different coloured wools hanging at the back. They...

I had a hybrid years ago that used to go bald on her tummy & bum every Summer. Couldn't find anything wrong with her. The first time it happened, I did try all sorts of things, thinking, like you, that something must be wrong. But she was fine, other than the feather loss. I came to the conclusion t...

While there is still a lot of homophobia and, sadly, racism is rife here, among young people here, it seems to be "cool" to be gay/bi/transgender etc. Friend of mine, when her daughter was in school as a teenager (now around 19 and married), she was, apparently, the only straight/non transgender pup...

A lot of todays songs don't have lyrics as such either.

That's very true. There was a "song" out some months ago, the lyrics of which consisted of "shake your a**", repeated ad nauseum.
