The pet cemetery




Well I have good news and bad news. The bad news, I lost my OEG Bantam early this morning. She starting limping just like Angelas chicken in the video. I gave her fishmox for 7 days and B complex. She could stand but wouldn't put any pressure on the hurt foot, she would hold it out to the side and the toes dangled. I kept her in the house for three weeks hoping she would get better. I got some scales off her leg where it turned black. I wonder if leg mites got in there. I did read that they can lose their toes and even the foot. She started breathing heavy last night so I knew it was a matter of time. Losing animals really sucks. I've been crying all day,shoot everyday as far as that goes still think about Colin my dog and the other 2 EE's. I think I might get some babies in the spring from somebody else, maybe Ideal hatchery. I think I remember somebody saying they had different colors in their EE's. I'm a muff and beard person. Think they are so cute. The good news, I have a new fur ever friend. Petfinder was my home page for a while and I got an e-mail about him. He is about 1-2 years old the vet thinks and is in good health. Having his "operation" the end of the month. Hope he will calm down after that. Loves to jump up on you and chew. He tore his new bed apart in 2 minutes time. Wants to run towards the chickens so they won't be out together for sure. He is part Australian Shepard and Collie. Hope y'all don't mind some pics to look at, been fixing up all the animals albums. Thanks for listening and caring.

I don't get it. She was fine then limping yesterday and today could not move at all. She was my baby girl. I had to help her out of her shell when she hatched...she truly was my baby! :( I wish I knew y she was limping and then just couldn't move at all. Then she passed right after I moved her to another room so I could mop! :(

Same thing with my OEG. Checked on everybody before we went up the road, came back home she was limping. So sad, I hated to take her away from everybody because I had a feeling she wouldn't be coming back. I have been raising chickens for only 2 years now and already lost 11.

How old are these birds that you are losing? Sorry have been just breezing through. I may have missed if this was an injury or just sudden onset of problems...This sounds like Mareks.
