daxigirl Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 How long does it take for something to go through a chickens system? I was having a squish of one of the Faverolle babies when quick as a flash she pecked my earring out and before I could wrestle it from her beak she'd swallowed it. Fortunately for her it's a very small stud type, not so fortunately for me it's one of my white gold diamonds from New York about 15 years ago. I've isolated her into the cat box with a puppy wee pad and minimal accompanyments. So far I've checked through about 50 poops. It's clearly not affected her appetite. I have checked everywhere just in case she dropped it and hoovered very carefully. Best of all there was a lady phoned about taking her and her sister and I had to say there was just the one at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daxigirl Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 Diamond Lill has gone to a new home with her sister. I decided that it was better for them to be together and the lady was very nice and delighted with them. As it was pointed out to me I could have lost it in the street. What if she hadn't swallowed it after all? What if it stayed forever in her gizzard? At least I can stop trawling through poop now, they sure do a lot in a day.
