Duckling Diaries: the Life and Times of a Welshie Trio

She's still hanging in there. I'm out of bandage supplies, they're on my list for when I next go into town.

Yay for Precious Chrissy.

I'm still not convinced keeping her alive is kind. Her appetite has dropped.

Trying to keep her comfy.... She's in a small pen to limit movement as in the dog crate she was thrashing and hurting herself.

True but extremely sad. At times we have to let go. But I'd hate to see that alternative but her pain is torture. Ugh. I'm sorry Banti.

I don't want to think about it. I just don't. Wake me up again when she's better, so I don't have to do what might be necessary.

I never thought that half a year out I'd still have this decision hanging in front of me.

so sorry Banti have you weighed her to keep track?

No, she's too feisty to put on the flour scale any longer. She barely stayed on it when she was shocky. She's still eating... But she isn't cleaning her bowl every day like she has been.

 

[BantyChooks]

I need a specific ducky scale....

[Julie Birb]

I totally understand. I don't either and I have not physically met her but I've come to love and care for her thru you.

I'm feeling your pain... Dux or not you are smitten by her...and your Mommy genes are clouding your decision...

As much as I dislike dux, I have to say no rush to put them down. They will all die someday, so take your time before making that choice...

It is kind of final when you do, It is like stepping on a platter, once you do there is no way to fix it.
