Sadly - nothing. I had a cross beak. She puffed herself up pretending she was eating and one day it became too much. I walked into the brooder and she was so tiny and sick. I held her in my arms until she died. Then I buried her next to the coop and her sisters.
Cottontail took a turn for the worst. She was in my arms most of the day, seemingly leaving us. I gave her some Bach Rescue Remedy to make the fear of transitioning lessen. But that perked her up a bit. Now it is a waiting game. She is too weak to eat of to have me feed her. I pray for a miracle...
Do you know how to apply the Penetran and how it is supposed to fix the cross beak? Also how much of the salts? When do I give it to them? How does it help my cross-beak?
Thanks,
Catherine
This is Cottontail. You can see her beak is severely crossed. Can a chick this bad survive? I sent my vet friend the article on Penetran and am going to the feed store tomorrow to ask about salts.She looks like she is eating,but she is no where near here Ameracauna sister in size. They are a day...
