Charlie_uk Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Further to my recent post "advice" Sad to say little onion didnt make it. She really picked up and we let her back out into the garden, but sunday we found her lying in the rain. Brought her inside to keep her warm but she wouldnt eat or drink. Was going to take her back to the vets this morning but came down to a very peaceful dead chook Very sad but at least she was warm and inside when she went. Thanks for all the words of advice, feel like a bad chicken mummy but even the vet was stumped during the week as to what was wrong with her Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayandrob Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 Sorry to hear about Onion, we have just had a very similar experience this weekend, sadly Betty hasn't made it either, she wouldn't drink or eat and vets couldn't find anything wrong, we decided to take her to the vets and have her put to sleep as she couldn't even stand and was so skinny. Your not a bad chicken mummy at all unfortunately these things happen sending you lots of hugs Kay xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie_uk Posted October 6, 2008 Author Share Posted October 6, 2008 Thanks for all the words of support, you dont realise how attatched you get to them even after a couple of months! We're thinking of going down the route of rescuing battery hens, probably two as its not fair on Sage being on her own! Kay sending hugs back your way too!
