Ruby’s Toe is Broken & Possible Ascites

[micstrachan]

I also forgot to ask... what brand of colloidal silver do you like? My neighbor says it should be the amber colored stuff, not the clear. What are your thoughts on that?

Can she move about and eat/drink Michelle? I would leave her with the others until she's just not able or they are attacking her.

Here is what I use. I have purchased it at a health food store locally, but, get a better price on Amazon.

Product description
The absolute best high potency silver available from a proven leading manufacturer since 1995. Colloidal Silver by Innovative Natural Products is produced by a True Colloidal Process. It contains silver particles so small that they measure only .004 - 0.107 microns in size. Innovative Natural Products Colloidal Silver the best product on the market today. The color of Colloidal Silver is also important. The darker the solution, the more potent the concentration of silver. From our research we have determined that many companies simply do not know how to manufacture Colloidal Silver properly. As a result, they are only able to produce Colloidal Silver at low concentrations. Innovative Natural Products Colloidal Silver does not lose its charge and stays suspended in the solution at any concentration. Glass is the preferred choice for storing Colloidal Silver for any length of time. Plastic containers cause the electrical charge to be drawn out of the solution, thereby rendering the solution less effective. Glass holds the electrical charge and enables the product to remain in suspension.

Yes, a hospital pen is best for Ruby, for now. No, you did not cause Ruby's issue.

Scientists recently found a fossilized turtle with cancer. The turtle lived about 240 MILLION years ago, a bone tumor afflicted one of its hind legs. So, cancer has been around a long, long time. It is just part of living on the planet.

I will send you the detailed info on the supplements, and treatments I used.

God Bless, and don't stress.

Yes... I just meant confine her to the red mini coop within the pen. But you’re right; I’ll hold off for now. It’s spring break (I’m a public school district employee), so I am able to take some vacation time and make sure the flock gets lots of free range time, which seems to boost their immunity and keep them happy. Really trying to keep the stress down. If being with everyone seems to stress her out, I’ll confine her (with the flock). Weather is plenty warm, I believe.

Came home early to let the girls out and check on Ruby. She is happy to be out.

Keep any pain managed, that will help with eating and drinking.

So good!

She’s on ibuprofen for inflammation, but it should also be helping with pain. She’s less active than normal, but is still out of the run right now (behind a bush, but still), and I even saw her dust bathe. Not much poop since she’s barely eating, but her body language is a little better.

Will she eat any treats you offer her? Maybe see if you can boost her energy with a portion of vegetables and fruits every day. Of course you could add eggs and mealworms, whatever she wants to eat is better than eating nothing.
