tamtam84-Thank you for your kind and encouraging words, but unfortunately my Ruby passed away yesterday. She did fight the good fight. I'm just glad she doesn't have to go thru this anymore. arkansaschick- Thank you too, your suggestions were very helpful. It's so comforting to know that I can...

Two days ago I moved Ruby into the laundry room of my house. She has become so weak and lethargic. I did notice that she was a bit squishy and drained off some brown/amber liquid. The next day I needed to drain her again only this time the results were terrifying, she started gasping for air...

I'm so sorry for your loss. Escorting a pet out of this world is a difficult thing to do, but I feel the same as you. I'm sure Buttercup was comforted with your presence. She will be missed dearly. I believe your posts have helped prolong my Ruby's life. Thank you. I too am having issues once...

Well I have some sad news....But it's not my Ruby, she seems to be doing fine ( so far ). My Buff Orp- Honey, passed away last Sat. 9-8. She was 2.5 yrs old. I never suspected a thing with her; she was starting a light molt and had stopped laying, so I didn't think much of it. She was active and...

tamtam84-Your pictures are amazing, I'm so happy Buttercup is rebounding. My Ruby seems to be doing the same only I think she is starting to molt. I have found a few feathers here & there. I contuine to feed the milk thistle with the table scraps and have included a small handfull of Gamebird...

Well my Ruby seems to be doing well; I have milk thistle capsules that I sprinkle on their table scraps and everyone is eating it up. I figured I'd treat all the girls with it. So far I still only have two girls laying but at least I've got 2 eggs now for a few days. Hurray! I was able to...

Perhaps I should ask this on another thread but... Is it safe to allow all my girls to have the milk thistle, and will it affect their eggs. Will I still be able to eat them? BTW- I got two eggs this morning! (there's not enough time in a day to read thru this forum) : )

@guesswhatchickenbutt- I'm so sorry to read about Clementine, I would have commented yesterday when I first saw the post only I just couldn't continue to read, dealing with my own Ruby and the stress of it was a bit too much. I do have some good news ( at least at the time of this writing) Ruby...

Thanks for your quick responses. It certainly makes me feel better. Three of the girls are 3 yrs and the other two are 2 yrs old.(Ruby is two) I just checked on Ruby and she is draining and poked her head out to see me but is still keeping her distance. Perhaps she's just staying away from the...

I have a RIR, Ruby, that has been having some problems recently and thought she had issues with worms, she became emaciated so I treated my whole bunch with garlic, yogurt and DE. She seemed to be bouncing back, feeling like she had gained a little weight but wasn't laying, or least I didn't...
