mg15--how long did you work with Whisper? I am 25 days now with Laya. And I will most defeninently keep working with her and trying to rehabilitate her. But her lack of balance concerns me.

How is she doing ??

She is wobbling around. Not really standing upright. She tries. She is outdoors for a bit of the day in a smaller run! She is happier but not as mobile as I wish she was. Her left leg is still out to the side.

We have purchased a rabbit hutch for Princess Layer. She loves it outdoors and even has contact with her sister chickens through a window covered with chicken wire! She seems to be happy. She will probably never lay an egg but its crazy that she follows me around like a puppy. So I am happy that she is happy. Her mobility is getting better but I think she will always be handi-clucked.

Handi-clucked,,,,
She is having the best life she can get.
Whispers waited maybe a month or so before she started to lay.
You are her friend now. She loves you. It's like having a lady friend.
And you kept her alive and she has a good life with you. She is not in pain and is happy. I think that is stamina and very good nursing skills.
Sometime post a a picture of her.

A little free range time for my favorite girl!

Princess Layer looks happy enough!

I see her legs and how she doesn't exactly stand.
Why do you think she might not lay an egg?

You are a good person.
