no joke! i found a little EE trapped under a water dish barely alive. head tilted back, beak open, one eye would not open, one wing bent in odd position. limp neck, but stiff body.

all i could think of was CPR.

i blocked the nostrils and blew VERY gently into the mouth. then i massaged it's throat and ribs.

repeated 2 more times. she perked right up and got a drink of water! moving slow, but getting right back to herself!

just had to share. i don't know if it will work in other instances, but it did today.

(if this isn't in the right spot, Mods, please adjust with your judgment.)
 
WOW! That is awesome!

to be perfectly honest there was a fleeting moment when i thought, "YOU CANNOT PUT YOUR MOUTH ON THAT CHICKEN!"

so i just closed my eyes and did it. the following 'puffs' i didn't freak out for, since i survived touching 'chicken lips' the first go round.

gonna go check on her right now in fact!
