After stalking your blog for ages, this story has made me want to leave a comment! :-) Glad Little Moe is not in pain. If you don’t find an illustrator and don’t mind getting one from Kenya, please let me know. I have two people I can think of whom you may be able to work with.

I think you’d be a great author of a children’s book … and it may be the shot in the arm you need to complete the adults’ book!

Wa Makeri,
Highlight of my day hearing I actually have a blog reader (stalker) who reads but rarely leaves a comment…now that is the ultimate compliment…:-) last night I went to check on the chicks and I witnessed first hand two of Little Moe’s peers brutally pecking @ him…in just a few seconds time, so I removed him from the group and he now has his own private quarters…so much reminded me of the bullying that goes on in schools and the world @ large….thank you for the affirmation I might be able to do the writing…I think you’re right…;-) I just need a little direction…but I am open to an illustrator from Kenya..it’s such a small world..thanks again for saying “hi” DM

We are still kicking around dates on this end for our western trip as well…what is it like in early/mid December? I’m thinking that might be a good time to fit it into my work schedule….I will have to clear it with Mrs. DM as far as taking little moe home..but my first thought is, that is a good idea :-) DM

Yep, I read it as well as the info you posted. Vet didn’t think in this case any type of splint would help due to the nature of the deformity So have you set a date for your visit to meet Little Moe? DM

You’re going to get me into chickens yet. I love the updates. Thanks for taking the time to get him checked out, and for the pictures of his vet visit.

It was a fun trip to the vet. I could tell he enjoyed our visit too. How is your bee hive doing? DM

“I’ve had 3 different people suggest to me I ought to write a children’s book with Little Moe as the main character….”

That’s a good idea. If that ever comes into fruition, I’d love to read it.

Little Moe looks like a cute little fella, and I hope he pulls through.

This might be useful –

Let me know if any of it works. :)

Hope you’re feeling better Cheryl…..thanks for the links. I read through all of them..some pretty cool stuff. According to what the Vet was telling us, he didn’t think there was much a splint would do…so as long as he can get around and isn’t in any pain that’s the main thing. DM
