Thanks. Mine too.

Quote: Thank you! Her name is Black-Eyed Susan and her nickname is Black-Eyes.

Quote: I'm positive that she has fluid in her abdomen. Is there anyway that I can drain it without a vet? I worried that she might not make it through the night if it doesn't get drained. I really don't want to lose her. She is a very special hen to me.

I looked at the links and they both are still really far away.

No, but I will.

Yes. It was very helpful! Thanks!

Quote: Thank you! I was wondering about that. I will google.

I checked her belly and it doesn't feel as full of fluid. It feels almost swollen.

What do I do about a vet? Will a normal one still see her?

I will try, but no vets in my area do birds.

Oops. I will check as soon as I get the chance. (Very soon.)

She wasn't eating the Rolaids, so I mixed them in with some yogurt and some chopped strawberries and she nibbled at them a little. I haven't gotten any farther with than that, though. Should I go ahead with the bath? Thanks in advance!
