Bird has mild colic

Gloomy overcast Saturday, perfect day to make a cappuccino and work of project blog tutorials and marketing. I posted the end tables for sale on all the sites and added a couple things to Etsy. I shuffled the new stock to paint away and tidied the work shop up.

I tried to get a better photo of the stained table tops

Bird was agitated so I ventured out if the cool misty air. I think she was bit by a bug as really wanted me to scratch her chest area she was nodding at. I gave them their supplements and scratched Bird a bunch before mixing up minerals and back in the house for a bowl of soup for lunch.





I was halfway thru my workout when B and Cooper arrived just after 4. She headed out to check Bird and did a health check. She seemed to still be presenting her symptoms and was now shaky so she took her in the barn. I met her in there after my 5 minute meditation then dispersing the salt/minerals to the 3 shelters.


 Of course she needed some meds so sent me back to the house to get the first aid goodies. After consulting with her vets it was decided she was having a spastic colic and banamine was injected. It did not take long for her to relax and seem much better. The blanket helped too.


I trotted out and caught Switch and brought her in and trimmed her feet seeing we were spending time in the barn. When Bird seemed to be feeling better we let them both back out in the paddock, swapping her fuzzy blanket for her back on track magnetic blanket.

Back inside I got veggies ready and roasted while she went to visit, brush and check on Roo. We ate late around 7:30 then she went to check on Bird again after 8 and waited for Amber and Brooke to pick her up for a party at the river. I jumped into the tub and watched my new series. B was off around 9:30. I heard her come in at 2:30 after I had watched a few more episodes and gone to sleep.
