Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

I did a C Section on a goat that died while pregnant! It was amazingly easy. Sadly, both kids were dead. I was hoping to save them.

that wouldnt bother me.

I thought my friend would pass out, but she could not stop watching.

That had to have been disappointing.

Yes, it was sad. They had been dead for a while, probably poisoned her.

I was pregnant once after DD was born. I went to a free clinic and they said I was then said I wasnt then was but baby had died. I went 5 months like that. It was horrible knowing your baby was dead in you. They finally gave me a shot to bring it on. They called it a misabort. I always hated that name . Then I went to fertility clinic for a yr or so and was told it would never happen. It was impossible to conceive. Guess I just didnt have the right pusher. 14 yrs later, Talk about a shocker !

I have a confession to make. I took a chicken to the vet.

One of my little Serama hens had something wrong with her eye. I noticed it over a month ago when we had to evacuate. Everything else about her was normal, but her left eye was closed, and she had peck marks on her comb. Not sure if pecking caused the injury or they were after her since she couldn't see on that side. Isolated her with a friend and was trying eye wash and Vetericyn eye gel for a few weeks. The eye got a little better, mostly opened, so I returned them to the coop. About a week later, her eye was really bad, getting swollen and looking a little cloudy. This girl is quite the little pet, so I decided to see if there was some way to save her. Vet was great. He checked her out and I got antibiotics and eye drops for her. After just a few days, the swelling is gone, and the eye is starting to open up.

Sadly, I think she lost vision in the eye. Hope she will be able to return to the flock. It's kind of sad... every time I go out to check on her, she mama clucks and tries to feed me! She's lonely. I will bring her friend down for awhile after she gets better before they go back up to the coop.

That is sad! I had 2 miscarriages. Bad enough! You had it worse.

aww, she wants to take care of you now. How sweet . I have heard chickens do really well with just one eye.

That's rough. I'm surprised you didn't have a raging infection after 5 months. A neighbor's daughter lost a baby at 8 months along. It died from having a knot in the cord that pulled tight. They induced her. Heartbreaking.
