HELP!!! TURKEY HEN PROLAPSED??

[danielley101215]

I read your whole post and my heart breaks for you. You were very brave. I wish I could tell you that the pain of Peeps death will go away, but I believe while it will become bearable, she will always be in your heart and will color many parts of your life. You will be stronger for going through this.

You really think so..? That means so much to me.. it means so much to hear things like that because I feel so low and heart broken over it all.. been sorta depressed over it all. Makes me so sad. She will always be with me always.. in ash form, and in my heart.. and images and videos. I can share some videos of her if you want to see her in action..you are so amazing. And caring. Thank you so much.

One of my turkey hens died from a vent prolapse earlier this month. I cried for quite a while and I’m still not over it. I love all my animals but she was like one of best friends. I love her so much. I still feel my heart break when I go to the coop. It gets easier over time though. I cried while reading these posts. You were very brave and all your animals are so lucky to have someone like you. I have one turkey hen left and I am absolutely spoiling her rotten with love now. I did everything you’re doing. All flock feed, limiting treats, more grit, and am letting her out a lot more often. This turkey is now looking happy and healthier than ever. I’m so sorry for your loss

I am so sorry for your loss as well.. it truly aches and is one of the worst things to have to go through. And thank you oh so very much for your kind sweet words.. my heart needs it right now. It means a whole lot to me. It’s very painful, still trying to grasp it all totally.. still unreal to me that she’s really gone.. a hard pill to swallow. My Peep was like my buddy as well.. always so sweet and always wanted to be with her human.. loved me to pieces and was so happy to spend time with me everyday. Made me happy when things were going on in my life she was always there and didn’t hurt me. I’m always crying it’s still so fresh.. her pen and favorite spots outside break me up the most.. thank you so much.. i do everything for my animals and love them more than I can say, especially my birds, and even more so my turkeys. They are truly amazing and I don’t deserve them. She was strong, stronger than I. I only have one turkey left, my one hen Ebony as well.. just her. And I wanna keep her around as long as I can. It’s good to know yours is thriving so well now with all those things as I hope my ebony will.. i don’t want to lose her either, my hearts not ready for that.. you are all so amazing.

And may I ask, how badly yours prolapsed? Was it also to this extent or not so badly..? Just trying to see that she was or wasn’t the only one, my poor girl

It was very bad. Her intestines were falling out too. I’ve never seen that much blood in my life. Then the chickens pecked it and made it even worse. I wasn’t home so I’m not sure exactly what happened. I felt so much guilt over not being there. I came home from work to find my girl dying. I held her in my arms telling her over and over how much I love her and she passed away. Everything happened so quickly and I was in shock. I didn’t even have a chance to try and save her. The whole thing was traumatizing and I even considered giving away the chickens. I wasn’t sure if I could handle anything like this again. But I decided I love them and am willing to do anything for them. All you can do is love them and take care of them the best you can. Anything can happen but I think the good outweighs the bad.

I’m so sorry that happened to you and your sweet girl.. it’s never easy. And it hurts so much, for us, and especially to see them that way. It stays with us forever and it aches like nothing else. I love my animals so much, especially all of my birds. I’m the same way, what you said is so true, things happen and they suck and they break our hearts.. but we love them so much. The love we can have for these guys are like no other type of love.. I do everything I can, and went to great lengths for her, and hope to keep everyone else healthy as long as possible. Especially my sweet ebony peeps sister.

So hi to everyone who was so amazing and kind hearted to me and my sweet Peep. It was awfully heartbreaking losing her and not a day goes by where I don’t think about her, or cry a little over it all. I miss her more than I can say.
I have her foot print still, some of her feathers and all the pictures and memories of her. And yesterday after about 3 weeks I finally got her ashes back from the pet cremation and cemetery facility, they were truly so amazing with her as were the vets that tragic night.
Wanted to share with you guys the beautiful urn I bought her, she is finally home sweet home with me, to stay by me always and forever. We are gonna get an engraved plate for it as well.

Thank you all again for being there for me and trying so hard to help with my sweet girl, and for your kind words after her passing. It means more than you’ll ever know

Thank you so much yes it’s very beautiful. I ordered her a custom urn, she deserves nothing but the best. She was the best girl I’m glad she’s home with me. Thanks for being so great and kind to me that night, you stayed up with me and talked me through it. I’ll never be able to thank you enough

I know I am very, very late to reply to this thread, but I've read every single post. I wish you the very best and good luck with Ebony. Peep seemed like such a lovely girl... I'm glad that she's home again and is reunited with Shadow..,
