Yep. It got a couple of ducklings/goslings and almost got her. Praise the Lord she pulled through! I was advised to put her down (It looked REALLY bad initially, super torn up and bloody) but I thought she deserved a shot.

Wow! I am glad that she made it! Was she the one that had a torn ligament? How were you able to heal her leg?

im sorry we had to get a tree of our pig fence luckily, we didn't have to move the fence line

We didn’t have to move the fence but we had to soon anyway because the horses needed more space and the cows had too much

The foot was basically almost torn off from the leg. We cleaned the wound, immobilized it the best we could, and basically just kept her quiet and comfortable. Eventually the foot turned black and fell off, so now she just has a stump for her right leg. She's slower than the ducks, and limps along the best she can. But now, her flight feathers have grown in, so when she wants to go faster, flapping helps her a lot and keeps a lot of weight off the stump so she can get around faster.

Everyone meet Rhonda! She is our miracle Rhode island red hen. She looks a little different because she stuck her head into a bowl of a hungry dog .... Anyways I was able to save her just not her left eye. Her beak definitely needs another trimming but other than that she is doing great! She is also one of our best egg layers!!!

wow

I have a miracle baby too! She only has one and a half legs, but still gets around with the best of 'em! Limps on land but swims well.

We used to have a snapper in our pond a few weeks ago. It's definitely longer than a foot for sure ! In the pic it's biting onto the net we caught him with....... We quickly caught him and "rehomed" him to a different spring a ways down the road.
