This chick is 13 weeks old .. the size of the palm of my hand and has to be the ugliest thing I have ever seen (almost) .... This little one was the egg left behind ... I brought it inside kept it warm (down the bra style) and eventually it hatched. It's mum regected it and I brought it back inside. It had curled toes with arthritc looking joints, I taped it and it seemed happy enough. It then developed a problem with its eye, I treted it 2 - 3 times a day for over a month and finally got some antibiotics. The eye is still not what I would call normal, but come to think of it nothing about this chick is normal. Here is Baby .....
Hi Pixijayne Thanks for sharing your story and taking such good care of Baby. In the second pic she looks just like a little vulture, she's very cute.
I think she is adorable! I bet she is really sweet to, and super grateful for all the extra you did for her to keep her going!
