Bone (?) growing out of her wattles?

Great news! The vet put her tongue back and stitched her up! Give me antibiotics and pain meds. I have to keep her inside the house for 24 hours in her carrier because it’s 10° outside. Tomorrow afternoon she can transition back to the coop in a separate area so that she can recuperate without getting injured by the other chickens. She drank some water and ate a little food. She has lost a lot of weight and I’m hoping she can get some put back on soon. For those of you who are curious, total vet charges with meds came to $185.

FanTAStic News!!
And cheap!
Was the tongue wholly 'alive'?

Wow that's a great vet! Is there anyway you could leave a really positive rating on yelp or something?

P,ease let us know how she is getting along the next few days. So glad that you had a good experience with a vet.

Yeah I thought that was a good price. Went to the “farm” vet, which explains that. My fancy cat vet would have cost a fortune. I’ll look at the tongue tomorrow but she thought it looked surprisingly good for how long it had been.
