    I have loved all animals my whole life. I can't even tell you all the diffrent animals I have saved since I was little. If I had my way we would be living on a farm with all kinds of animals. Animals are a big part of my life and I can't imagine life without them. As of today we have a total of...

    Sorry to hear about Queeny. It certainly isn't a easy choice. However, after a day or so I think you will feel better knowing that she isn't suffering anymore. At least I did. However, it doesn't take the pain of missing them away. My heart is still heavy but I am least able to realize it was...

    I have been doing some more research. I have come to the conclusion that Runt more than likely had that Avian Encephalomyelitis (AE). Now that I am in somewhat of a rational state...not that I could or would ever forget about him/her. I literally laid around all day yesterday and cried. I have...

    Thank you all for the kind words. It's been a really tough day so far. I didn't even want to get out of bed cause the first thing I did was talk and take care of Runt. And I literally cried myself to sleep last night. I appreciate the support, a lot of people...including the one's in my...

    Quote: Thank you so much. I can hardly even see straight to write. I don't know what to do with myself. My kids are feeling better then they were when it was done. But we did bury him/her and had a little ceremony. At this point I am scared and really sad. I don't want to get close to any more...

    Hi guys, My baby has had to be put down. S/he had really bad diarrhea and was getting so bad. Didn't want to do anything but sleep. I didn't think it was fair for him/her to keep having to live like that anymore. I have been crying for hours and life isn't the same. I used to be able to leave...

    Quote: Everyone thinks I have lost my mind by doing this. But if it helps get his/her legs stretching then so be it. Lol I actually think it's kinda of cute. How does Runt like the swing? Baby hated his chair but I knew taking the pressure off his legs was good for part of the day at least...

    Look what I did for my baby. That way his/her legs could stretch in a different way. And this is her/him enjoying the outside for a few minutes!

    Quote: Thank you for the post. It was very informational. Where do I go to see the video? I am new to this site and still trying to figure it out. Also, how old is Baby? Did she seem to sleep a lot too? I appreciate all the encouragement sincerely. ~S

    I took little Runt outside to get some fresh air and to peck in the grass for a little bit. I noticed that the left leg looks bigger and stronger...like there is a lot of muscle. However the right leg looks tiny compared to the other. Even the toes on the right are tiny...compared to the left...

    Quote: It's been 4.5 days. His/her legs have been twitching a lot and the upper body will heave, like a cat before puking. I will probably just keep doing the B therapy for a few more days. I was just wondering if the antibiotics would help or make things worse for him/her. I will stay away...

    Question: Would it hurt, or be a bad idea, if I gave antibiotics to little Runt? I have yet to see much improvement with Runt. So I was thinking maybe I could give the antibiotic a try. His/her legs seem a bit stronger since this all started but still flipping over a lot. ~S

    Can someone help with the breed I have here?

    Quote: It's frost bit, I didn't know what I could do to help that last winter. Thank you for the idea's cause I had no clue where to start. The momma has feathers on her feet too. Don't know if that means anything. ~Sara

    Thiamine deficiency in poultry As most feedstuffs used in poultry diets contain enough quantities of vitamins to meet the requirements in this species, deficiencies in this vitamin do not occur with commercial diets. This was, at least, the opinion in the 1960s.[41] Mature chickens show signs...

    I don't know if it's because mine is still real little or what but s/he will end up doing flips in a sense. If s/he tries getting up s/he ends up falling to the side and then uses the wings to get try and help which then just makes her/him flip to the back or will flip over forward and end up...
