Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

It doesn't make it any less painful though. She was a very unique and special chicken.
No, of course not. I feel the same way about Cleo. I only wished to express that in case you felt like getting the meds in time would have made the difference, and felt any guilt about it -- it is one of the stages of grief, after all -- that it probably wouldn't have mattered. I'm sorry for your loss.

my wife suggested that i take her to the vet about a week before i actually did. I do feel like that inaction cost my bird her life.

I can't stand that feeling. It's unavoidable with chickens because of how skillfully they hide symptoms, the fact that avian veterinary resources are upsettingly slim, and that we're such a different species it's nearly impossible to figure out what's going on with chickens sometimes. There's just no way to bat 1.000.

Here's to forgiving yourself and focusing on the good life you gave her.
