Got the chickens in the pen yesterday, but the wee fools were too scared to go into the coop and slept in a pile in the corner of the pen.

Woke up to someone screaming and raced out to chase away the raccoon that reached through to grab. The little silkie, Mulberry, has a bunch of feathers ripped out of her back, but I don't see any other injuries. I washed her down and put antibiotic ointment on the booboo.

I had to stuff the other chickens in the coop and block them in, and now they don't want to come out. Can't say as I blame them...

Anyway, I've been up since 2 and have had nought but coffee since then.

Mulberry's tucked in a rubbermade container with a container of aspirin water and a plate of scrambled eggs. The others have gatorade in their water, which I put in the coop, and a threw in a few handfuls of food. Gatorade is supposed to help with shock.

I'm babbling. I gotta eat something.

We had an injured Jay once, the first thing they do is give them sugar water. A swan that was injured, they gave her corn or maple syrup for shock.

There was a Tv show on years ago called "Eerie Indiana". These kids found odd things happening in thier town. ONe was some kids that stayed in "5th?" grade for the last 30 years. They slept in tupperware at night so they stayed fresh & young.

I am frickin exhausted. Put hardware fabric (or something like that) all around the pen. Sewed it to the existing poultry netting with wire. Put poultry netting inside, under the plastic roof. And I've been up since 2.

Realized I missed rehearsal and sent a note of apology.

Would love to go to bed, but I need to wait until the chicks go in their coop. I may give up and stuff them in again.

We all survived the night. I woke up a few times 'just in case' but never heard anything. The motion sensor light went on a few times (sorry neighbor!) but I never saw anything when I looked out the window. All looks fine this morning.

Mulberry looks great. She's sitting on her crumbles, nibbling scrambled egg mixed with yogurt. I'm thinking three days of aspirin water. Any opinions on that? Think of your kid taking a sliding fall off a bike and getting horrible road rash, how long would it hurt?

Probably will hurt for a couple of days. Imagine getting you hair pulled out! Ouch! Poor chickie!

With my kids, if they are busy with the next thing, the road rash is ignored.

I was thinking - chasing bugs, pecking the other chicks, digging up the neighbor's garden.

She needs to be in until she doesn't smell like blood, or the other chicks will peck at her. Saturday I'll put her in a pen in THE pen and let them all start remembering that they know each other.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/
