 Update too: and now there are two
My last post was a few weeks ago. After loosing our little Chicken I didn't have much hope. Our girl is still with us and she is now over 6 weeks old. She is fed every 3 hours still. She doesn't seem "normal" her head bobs. She falls all the time and she seems very tired much of the time. She eats great! She loves her milk and is learning to lick up mushy puppy food. I also don't know if she can see. She doesn't track and when I put her on her blanket for food/playtime she often runs into the wall. I have also put my hand near her and she doesn't come to my hand but if I touch her she curls into it.
I had her to the vet and her temp was 1.5 degrees LOW. He said he doesn't know whats wrong or even if anything is wrong. I think he is nuts. This is not normal 6 week behavior. I got a king sized heating pad and raised the room temp to 76. She is staying warmer now. She has more than doubled her size and is 9.5 oz. Ive gone and done what I said I would not and become attached to this baby. She is so sweet, how could I not love her?
Here is her picture. I took some video of her and am going to try to post them in the video section of yt.
Her brother is still doing well. No issues with him that I can see, other than he refused to learn to eat on his own. |
