PAN:
I'm a bit rough around the edges, I know. I'm sorry for that.
As far as the chicken goes, we're going to start calling this one 'Mira' (Me-Rah), short for Miracle.
It is a Miracle that we have had 40 Chickens, 4 different breeds, each hatched at different times at different places, with 30 unvac'd and 10 vac'd for cocco, and we've had ZERO deaths/problems.
So this Chicken is called Miracle.
I'm 99.9% sure that this Chicken is NOT sick.
I'm taking her to the Vet tomorrow to attempt to deflate a punctured lung, as I don't have the necessary needles/such to get the job done here.
No extra money this month in the budget to cover the cost, but I see it as a learning experience.
I'm hoping the Vet will teach me how to do it myself in the future, as I plan on keeping chickens for the rest of my life, and this is something I need to know.
The white poop I'm 99% positive is only because she isn't eating much. She HURTS, we know what a collapsed lung feels like as Echo has had hers collapse 5 times, and since part of it removed to prevent it happening again. It is not fun. All urine and little food = pile of white poop... I'm hoping.
Without the information located on this website, this is something I don't think I would have put together.
Mostly what makes me believe this, and we'll find out tomorrow..
When the chicken is gasping, its tongue is off to one side. I don't see any air pockets on its body, but its a tell tale sign on a human that they have lung sack damage when their throat and tongue start moving to one side... at least that is what they said in "Combat Life-Savers" Army Medical Course we had to take.
Hats off all, here's crossing our fingers for tomorrow, and expensive poke with a needle, (Vet Visit) and a healthy chicken... I pray.
Also, took an 8 second video to test if I can just use EZGif to turn them to a gif and upload that way.
