Welcome to BYC! Glad you decided to join our flock. Thanks for posting the pretty picture of Fluffy and yourself. Do you have any other chooks besides Fluffy? Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Good luck with Fluffy.
Cheers.
Is Fluffy your house pet? Do you have any other chickens? I ask because chickens are flock animals and do better raised with others. whereas ' lonely onlies '
are happy as houseets because they get lots of attention.
Oh Yes, I have the following chooks:
henrietta, Cholka and Cheeky.
Henrietta has an oviduct health issue. I took her to the vet Monday and I am treating her with anti-inflammatory and anti-biotics.
Unfortunately their sister, Chloe, died on Tuesday, 8 August from cardiac-arrest (heart attack) and I found her dead in her coop
lying on her side. I am still traumatised!
Also, in the other coop, there is Bianca, Jedda, Penguin, fluffy, little girl, Zora and Isa.
I will upload more photos soon of them.
Heart attack does take them fast. I have a hen right now with something going on either with her heart or a stroke. It is hard to find them gone when you go up to the coop. I hope your heavy heart can heal soon!
