Totally understandable, I've been going through it too with these poults of mine. :hugs

:hugs

No you're not. I couldn't cull mine either, I just treat anyone sick or everyone. I love my flock, it is what it is!

I'm with ya! :hugs

:hugs

We gotcha back! Trust us.... How easily & quickly they wriggle their way into our hearts, huh? I'm a retired nurse, and I'm sure there are others with their particular skillsets that can fix you right up. I can wing it for a good while myself, lol! We are a community here for sure, scattered...

Did you try soft scrambled egg?

Sorry you're having to deal with this. I agree that the store should've at least refunded you & apologize, of course they're trying to admit no wrong!😡 I'm glad you're close to that Necropsy Lab in Tulare. :hugs

I agree.

I dispatched it the same way I did my quail on processing day. I have to use a wire to hold their head down and use my hatchet, but my shears probably would have been "easier" (nothing easy about it for me either). :hugs You can always return her to the store, I didn't have that option.

I know, I'd had to cull a sick guinea a couple day ago... I just told it I was sorry but I couldn't watch it suffer anymore. Usually I have my DH do it for me, but he was outta town.

Mine I'd had for months.... she'd already been with the flock since forever. Yours never exposing your flock..... I'd cull her, personally, but you have the option to return her.

May need to dig out the dried pus then. I have a thread of when I was treating mine, let me find it...
