Thirsty Thursday

How lovely. Gucci still a bit down in the hocks but not terrible

Better now we are back and Bella is over her heat event!
In the moment I was fine because Adrenalin kicked in and I knew what I needed to do and just did it. Now I am pretty washed out and going to bed!
I also feel more optimistic as she is young and if her lungs aren’t shot and I can keep getting food into her then maybe she will recover in her own.
I will buy all the yellow melons she wants!
I will wait for the vet to consult but if there is no improvement and still no clue on what is going on, then I might just treat for mycoplasma anyway. I might need your help on dosing etc.

Try scrambled eggs, I fed that to Sophia last year when she had a really hard rough molt and wouldn't eat.

I will. She goes for mash, she will do anything for scratch grains, and as my video shows she is pretty keen on melon guts. I like melon too so she and I can share.

I have helped many with mycoplasma. No worries.

She is not 100% but she is also no worse for sure. Possibly a little better.

I have to agree with that!

She is not 100% but she is also no worse for sure. Possibly a little better.

And she does look otherwise healthy and happy. It really does look like Bernadette. Great appetite, no other issues. Just weak in one leg. Bernadette got to a more extreme issue but there were times when she looked very similar.
