I’m very happy that Apache is improving! Thank you for keeping us updated and posting photos. He looks like he feels much better. I’m looking forward to following your journey with him. You have such a caring heart. Apache is a beautiful lucky rooster. You obviously have done all that’s been necessary for him, and it shows through his improvement. Also, thank you for sharing Apaches story. It can help others in the future with similar situations.
Thank you!
I have put Apache to sleep two hours ago.
He could stand on his feet several times today - even if he could not stand high.
But he is clearly recovering his strength, given he could even WALK! Just a bit, and he actually was more crawling than really walking... but he could, and that's amazing.
(Nevertheless, walking takes clearly a lot of energy - for the time being -, since the last time he did today, he was out of breath...)
For the first time for several days, he has also been able to sit NORMALLY on his legs when I put him to sleep in his coop!!
(...AND BEFORE THAT, TODAY : HE COULD ARCH HIS BACK - AT LEAST ONCE!! WHAT HE HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DO FOR MUCH TOO LONG!!!)
That's a very big improvement, so I trust he is healing superbly. Even faster than I thought would be possible...!
He ALMOST does not even panically flip his wings anymore, so... looks like a big progress to me?! And so fast, seriously...
