Goodness i am so sorry.
It is just a bad year for us i guess.
Ugh sometimes i wish so hard i could step away, but trying to rehome my managerie is overwhelming. I cant believe i forgot about my rabbits i had rehomed to get a call that one was sick because they didnt brush them, then ripped...
Thank you. I appreciate the support.
And the vet says they ruled out anything that would be primary cause of this disease. Cancer, infection, tick disease, valley fever... all ruled out. They simply said her own immune system said to heck with you red blood cells.
We had her on prednisone and...
This year had been Hell.
Ive rescued and rehomed and given medical treatment to many an animal. But this year has been one to kick a man while he's down, land strike after strike below the belt, and .....
(use your worst torturous imagination to continue the onslaught)
The year started strong...
Thank you. I agree it seemed grim and im trying to find solace that i did everything i could and didnt make it worse.
I dont even know where it came from to be honest. None of my birds seem broody and cant find a nest. My mom found the egg in a random place.
There isnt anyone around that has...
Thank you so much.
She seems to be going down hill fast now :(
Her reflex to swallow is weak and her head is just falling now.
I appreciate it so much.
Too bad there isnt a magic "you're gunna live you lil' shit" pill... 😭
Yesterday my mother brought me a duckling dried and cling wrapped in a stomped egg.
The ducklings umbilicus is still protruding slightly and it appears the yolk was completely ruptured. The chick was weak and folded like it wanted to still be in the egg.
I didnt expect it to make it, but now...
sooooooo
Was given this "coturnix quail" by a lady with chickens because her dog brought it in and she knows you cant house them with chickens...
Well it clearly is a baby chicken... and clearly she lacked knowledge for me to comfortably suggest she keep it and try to raise with her chickens...
Okay guys! We have settled on Fairy, Fae, Pixie, Brownie, Nymph, and Sprite.
Thanks for all the help!
I found out falb fee means fairy quail so that was how i based my themes. But for future quail i will definitely look back on your suggestions.
Its hard to say. It could have been something wrong with his respiratory system
It could have been that he aspirated liquid into his lungs.
I also think if he threw up, that he might have had an infected yolk that caused sepsis.
These thing happen.
Babies dont always make it, and it is sometimes...
Just picked up 6 new girls... cuz i have to keep my two new boys that hatched. Lol
I believe i have 2 falb fees, 2 italian, a tuxedo, and a jumbo white.
Now... i need names...
I like themed names.
So see what you guys can come up with!
