Mr. Clouds - Despur

Hi to all, 

Start with this, that morning we cleaned out the coop, sprayed it to 

kill lice and any other thing that was in there that did not belong. 

Inside the coop got a thick layer of shavings. All laying nest areas got 

new clean layer pads for their nest area. Then we attacked the covered 

area, cleaned, and sprayed then laid down clean hay thick for them. 

Mr. Cloud's Spurs

Mr. Cloud's spurs size: One measuring the curve is 3 & 1/2 inches. The other 

one's size is: 3 & 1/4 inches. One of them was larger around at the point 

where it attaches to the leg.

So, Monday evening we approached the chicken coop. Went in and 

dusted all of them all with Diatomaceous Earth. Then put a towel around 

himself, picked him up and I held him, Vince used plies and twisted off 

the spurs. It was easy, we then washed each tiny new spur with cleanser 

and we sprayed it with the purple stuff, fights infection and protects while 

it hardens off. Picks of the first set of spurs will come once I have cleaned 

they up. Also sprayed the hen's backs, all their feathers are missing on 

their backs. Spurs needed to be gone, so hens can recover. 

He was such a lover, just laid limp in my arms while we worked. Got 

to love a rooster like that. 

The next day while doing my walk, I passed them all in the sunny spot 

in the chicken yard, laying on their sides, with wings spread out. They all 

looked so content and happy. I have never caught all doing this together. 

The next day we got 7 eggs, meaning all chickens laid that day. Cleaning 

the coop really pays off. 😇🤣😍

Love and Prayers,
