    Our Roo Has Died!

    Our daughter took a picture on Thursday. I will try to remember to post it tonight. We did not have the money to pursue necroscopy, and did not excise the area. In retrospect, we should have. I will research botfly--I've never heard of it. I will tell you that this roo was a nice bird...

    Do splayed legs ever fix by themself?

    I might be too late. We've tried band-aids and pipe-cleaners, and physical therapy. Jerry was looking pretty good two days ago, after doing therapy for a few days, but that leg is straight out again. He will be three weeks on Thursday (today is Sunday). Is it too late for him? And should I...
