3 weeks after amputation

Here's my baby just over 1 week after amputating his leg. isn't he pretty! so proud of him, he stands right up on his good leg, hops around and seems all around happy :-) I am so glad we amputated his bad foot!

day 3: he is up and doing better everyday! getting ready to change the gauze on his leg. he hops around on his good leg and rests on his stump. we do not breed any birds here. we just took him in because no one wanted him. glad to have him as an addition to our family.

day 2 after surgery: he is doing good this morning. He is up and eating/drinking. Our baby turkey is keeping him company, watching over him. :-)

with consultation and assistance from a fellow peacock raiser, he came over and determined that there is nothing that can be done to "fix" his leg/foot. He amputated his leg at the hock and so far the peachick is doing better. He sits up and is eating. It has been several hours and he is...

its hard to get his foot open all the way, but we will try to make a brace for it. I had to tape his legs together (about 1 1/2 apart) to keep his leg from pushing outward. he doesn't seem to be in any pain but just flops around. will take pictures of the brace as soon as we can get it done...

thank you for the links....I will be checking them out!! No, I will not give up on him. just hurts me to see him like this.

I just got this peachick from a friend who had given up on it. I am not sure whats wrong with its foot or how to fix it, so please any suggestions would be very helpful!! I don't know if it will live or not, but I am willing to give it a shot. This is the only peachick we have had (have 25...
