Only think I got done was chickens and I managed to kill 5 of them and one more iffy.
I fed and watered the mama and babies yesterday and when I went out today they were all screaming bloody murder. I had forgot to put the water back in the cage. So I grabbed it and stuck it in there and they all went flying for it so I went on to do my chores. I sat down to take a break and heard mama make a weird noise. I would describe it as a short scream. I thought how odd, never heard that one before. I went to look and dead and dying babies all over the place. They had a clear liquid but very thick coming from the mouth and nose. seizures then dead. 3 were gone, watched 2 go and last one is lost balance, arching its back, on its side. Mama was fine but you could see the confusion. Broke my heart. I took her to gen.pop. and brought the last baby in. He was gasping and I tried to put him under the heat but he would just seize and gasp then go to his side. So here I sit One lonely chick in my lap.
I was sitting the dead babies on top of the cage and Binks grabbed one. I grabbed it and we played tug-o-war til I felt skin rip and I let go. I hope whatever this was dont hurt him but he was growling at me and I didnt want to get scratched up or bit so He ate 4 of them.
