This is Lou when I woke her up this morning. She was at attention and seemed happy for some company. I was happy that her toe had not bled overnight. Phew. Her toe was treated once again with Purishield and a mixture of cornstarch and diatomaceous earth. Then she was left in the garage coop for the day while Papa Hen worked in sunny California and Mama Hen went to school.
After school her toe was still not bloody so she got to explore the yard a bit on her own. Testing the waters. The toe still looked good. It's the toe without a long and scary toenail. The one at the top of the photo.
Then she got back to chicken business.
I checked her toe several more times and found it to be clean and dry, minus a little snow melt.
The other chickens wanted some attention too!
ps. Lou will sleep in the coop tonight with Red Door Coop's small flock.
