The poor girl has some nasty issues going on it would seem. Hope the Baytril helps. Keep an eye on the injection site as it can burn the skin if injected.

Oh, Shirls. I hope the vet is able to sort poor Poppy out this time. Six days is a long time for any animal not to eat, especially already ill.

Yep I love it, not many people know about it I am impressed I've been doing it for about 5 years now. Not done loads but it's interesting. Made a few cards and a picture I have in my bedroom.

I go to a class every week, my biggest project is a ferris wheel that turns and is about 12'' high, took a few hours to do. I have also been doing it about 5 years. Nice to meet someone else who does it.

Sorry folks, but Poppy didn't make it. She was so weak this morning I took her to the vet as planned and had her pts. I really think this should have happened last week but when the vet said she would give her an injection of antibiotic I'm afraid it built my hopes up. She had a good life with me and was spoilt rotten, short tho it was. Vet said it was due to her poorly start in life. I am sooo angry about the woman that sold these chickens to me in the state that they were in. Having said that I loved and love all four of them. Big learning curve for me, knowing what to look for next time. Nothing more I can say really.

Oh Shirls, I am so sorry, you did everything you possibly could for little poppy, she was lucky to have spent her short little life with someone who loved and cared for her very much. Thinking about you Shirls, I hope your ok.

Aww Sorry Shirls. You did what you could while learning. I understand your anger towards the woman that sol you the chickens in the first place. She should have and maybe did know they were in poor health. Sorry. Let's hope the two remaining ones live a long and healthy life with you.
