OK again you have to give her time, she's a very slow progressing chicken. I'm telling you I think one day you are going to go out there and BOOM, she is going to look at you as if to say, "Hi, are you OK". While your standing there with you mouth dropped, Heart beating so loud that I can hear it in OHIO. Then I can see you RUSHING so fast into the house, you will probably trip over your own feet, just to get on the computer to say "OMG, SHE HAS HER NECK STRAIGHT".. LOL...Thanks Lori, I weighed her yesterday and she was 667 grams... She has now been moved into a rabbit cage lol still inside but she is moving around a lot more now, & the carry cage she was sitting in isn't high enough for her to stretch up as she does nowshe is still holding that neck to the side- but she is alert with eyes open for hours nowand she constantly walks around in her circles. I'm still thinking is this a huge improvement as she was listless constantly sleeping and only sitting a week or so ago...
I am praying she eventually moves that neck into the correct position. Cause she still doesn't peck at the ground and only eats what I feed her. I'm worried if her neck is crooked per mantle she can't survive and isn't having the life she deserves. Sure I can hand feed her 3 times a day but that's not fair to do forever... How long would you give this until you said its not going to move back to correct position??
I'm thinking if its still the same after 3 months or longer I'd say progress is limited greatly. That gives me about 6 more weeks to get this little fighter back on track so she can be a chicken again...
She clucks at me now when she see's me Lol, it's like she knows its feeding time- Bless her!!!
I am surprised at how alert she is and her behaviour has down a 180.... From falling over and looking dead to this today is truly amazingI love my little " Licorice"
The ONLY thing that wrong with her now s this bloody crook neck.. I'm so proud of her, & I have become touched and bonded to her after spending many hours with her keeping her alive. She is one special girl whom will always have a very soft spot in my heart...
Well it sounded good when I was typing it.. LOL.... Give her time, her progress is sooo amazing, I just have a good feeling she is going to SNAP right out of this, she has come such a long way.. It's absolutely CRAZY....
