foreveryoung Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Hello, Don't know if you remember a post on chick clinic? about my hen having mycoplasmosis and me having to tube feed her?? well just a small update really, there was no improvement and we had tried her on 3- 4 different antibiotics. so I made the decision to do whats right for her at this time and to have her put to sleep. I'm gutted we didn't win this battle but I know I did all that I could, giving her a fighting chance!! but I guess she had just had enough... I cannot thank the vets who were actually interested in getting her better enough, I didn't once have "its a hen its bets to put her down like I have had in other places I have taken them!! I gave her the best shot, i know that! xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackian Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 I am sorry ..It is not an easy decision .I had to have Eva PTS 3 weeks ago she broke her leg.I felt doubly guilty as she had only been with us 6 weeks. It is funny how the other girls missed her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
