So adorable.

Baby Girl is 14 weeks now and thriving! She looks and acts like a real chicken. We appreciate everyday with her and are hoping she will be the miracle RSS survivor. Baby Girl is on the left - on the right is her BFF Phyllis Diller!

Still thriving!

Still thriving!

Baby Girl is 5 1\2 months now and absolutely healthy and beautiful! Her crown is growing and turning red and the final hurdle will be if she can lay eggs. To think we were considering having to euthanize her just a few months ago.
If anyone has an RSS chick, please don't give up! Some extra TLC, vitamin drops and patience saved our Baby Girl!

Hello. I’m wondering how Baby Girl is doing a year later. I have a little gold laced Wyandotte that I believe has RSS. She is 16 weeks old now and finally fully feathered and looking like a chicken. She is still about half the size of her flock mates and peeps while the others are clucking. I’m thrilled that she seems to be catching up and hopeful that she will continue to thrive.
