Great Job Luke!!! You are very brave and caring. Pegleg sure is a fighter. She looks great! Other than scratching, I can't think of anything else she won't be able to do.

Congratulations on the Great Job!

awesome news luke!!!! what a brilliant outcome so far. The chick looks very bright eyed and happy in all of your pictures! You have done an amazing job.

She/he? will live a very happy life if the stump doesnt get infected... it won't know what life was ever like with 2 legs! It won't know that it can't scratch! It will poke around with it's beak and make do!

Keep the updates coming

Oh Luke, I am so sorry. You worked so hard at saving that baby. She knew it. She passed away loved and well taken care of. RIP Peg Leg. So sorry for your loss.

Oh I'm so sorry!

You should take comfort in the fact that you did EVERYTHING you could possibly do to help it, and I'm sure it was made more comfortable with your efforts and love.
