Goldie is really not doing well... leaving for the vet in about fifteen minutes and *fingers crossed* but outlook isn't good. Have already enlisted help of a friend who has no birds of his own that could become at risk - but who knows how to humanely and quickly cull if it comes to it. Cried when I called him - hard - I really hope it does not come to that.
And with that said, there are a couple of things I really don't tolerate well. These include people who treat animals/kids/elderly badly, people who try to lie/cheat/screw others over assuming their target is too dumb to know the difference, and anyone who insults others when they've gone on a limb to give the benefit of the doubt and take the high road in sharing helpful information at a time they could have done otherwise.
She screwed up on all of these. And, suffice to say, I found some extremely useful information that, combined with her written email statements, will probably result in her not having chickens for a while. Major violations left and right - I almost emailed her with them but am instead am opting to go higher up the chain. She had her chance - and people with such loose ethics are a disservice and threat to a healthy agricultural industry and honest well-intentioned people everywhere. Even if the hen doesn't end up being MG positive - this lady is violating some big-biggies - and I'm going to be sure she learns not to do this to anyone (or any animals) again.
So much more I could say - but I'm going to refrain from sharing anything more by which she could possibly identified - and will hold on sharing the links for what she's violated until after the reporting process in underway. Given unfortunate and depressing circumstance - I feel like I hit the goldmine with what I learned today - and that makes what may be coming a little easier to face.
