Sure are hoping there isn't any underlying injury with that....ya stated ya was falling and grasping....could have a stress fracture of some sort.....:fl
Oh....btw.....I did see those sweet Khakis in your pics....:love
Yes, those little girls are everywhere. :D. And they are SO cute! :love

No, I don’t think there is a broken bone. My whole arm slapped against the fence. In fact the bruising, near the elbow is a LOT worse. So, I’m thinking that is the reason for the aching after doing the dressing change.

My 5 new guineas arrived today, along with 8 RIR roosters, to keep the guineas warm. I walked into the post office, to pick them up, and could hear them peeping, the instant I opened the door.

Our overnight temp went down to 55F, so I turned the truck heater on, on my way there, so it would be nice and cozy for them. The peeping did get quieter on the way home.

Here they are in their box

When I got home, I took them straight to the barn, where DH was putting finishing touches on their new home.

I left them in the box, until we would get the area up to 95F. It took several height adjustments, of the light, before the temp came up. However, it was funny. When I put them in there, they were peeping their heads off. As soon as they were under the light, there was total silence.

Here they are when they were out of the box. It didn’t take them too long to lay down, stretched out with beak and feet on the ground. It almost looks like they died. We have water with electrolytes and feed now. They all seem to be happy campers. :D
