This little chick is definitely in the right hands! How lucky she is to have found you!
I hope she is able to overcome her conditions and live the very best chickie life she can! ❤

Wow. Thank you. Hadn't thought of that. Just knew she was determined to beat the odds and I need help to aid her. She is a red Dorkin. I love Dorkins but have lost all my silver grey Dorkins. Three to a raccoon and one to disease because of the raccoon. When I saw the red Dorkin I fell in love.

We caught her in a trap the night she got a black copper maran. My dh gave her 22 reasons not to come back. All my pens are made with the raccoon zombie apocalypse in mind now.

How is she?

I was just about to post. Doing great. I realized I left you all hanging. She's walking better. Loud. And I've been feeding boiled egg white. We tried yolk but it was too dry. she has pecked a few times. That is the good news. I am still giving her water from the tip of a paper towel. I believe she can see but not well. Her hearing is great. I really wish I had an x Ray of her head because I don't think she has a fully functioning jaw on the left. I have to put the egg in her mouth and she works it around to get it down. I think I will switch to scrambled egg so it is more balanced. She has bonded to me which I don't know if it's good or bad. When I put my hand close to her she comes to me and steps into it. I wish I could hurry my hatching eggs so she can have some friends to teach her.
I was updating my daughter earlier and told her I don't want to be watering her from a paper towel and putting food in her mouth when she's 6 months old. Hopefully one of the new babies will become her besty and teach her chicken stuff and be her seeing eye chicken.

She did a great job of eating just now. Getting better at it and eating more. Seven likes the scrambled eggs better. My roty likes when I feed Seven, she gets the left overs.
I just got word from seller that they are indeed autosexing so Seven is a hen

Probably, I can see her being in a flock. Depending on how things go with the other babies, I'll know more what is going to happen. She's so beautiful.

She is quiet today. Didn't wake me last night. She is peeping at me but not yelling. I gave her some water and will feed her in a few minutes. Her crop is empty so she's digesting. There are baby poops where she slept.
Oh now she's yelling.
That's a relief.
Got a go my baby is calling.
