Mr Biggles
New Born Pup
Hello one and all! Although still missing Biggles hugely, I've taken on two girls (just over 3years old) as they were looking for a new home. Lilly and Lottie had apparently lived out most of the time in a small chicken arc - just coming in when it was bitterly cold! As a result, they weren't very friendly but will now let me pick them up quietly instead of a mad scramble! They don't wheek or popcorn or do anything B used to do so it's a bit strange. A few weeks ago Lilly started going bald on one side, then the other and then a patch on her back. I took them both to the vet and they had a course of 3 injections for mites. The last one was on the 24th July but notmuch seems to be happening. Yesterday when I got them in from the garden, I noticed almost a rash (bites?) on one side. Could Lottie be 'grooming' her or has anyone any other ideas. They are on shavings and hay (usually via the freezer!) and there weren't any problems to start with. Suggestions? I'll try and download a photo but not sure how that'll go!
