Willow and I are so sorry to hear about poor baby Lacey. These babies are so fragile and it sounds like her care before she came to you was very lacking. She may be suffering from something that happened to her before she came to you. She may have had a bad hypoglycemic attack and was down a long time and has not recovered. She is obviously in pain. Is there a University Vet Hospital anywhere near you? They are always so good with these little babies. My Willow is at the University of Minnesota Hospital right now recovering from surgery to repair a broken leg.
I got Willow from a fantastic breeder that has been there every step of the way with me. I wish you could call her. We did nutrical when Willow first came home and she also told me to put baby chicken food on her hard food to entice her to keep eating. It worked. But Willow sounds like she didn't have the problems in her earliest months that Lacey may have had.
We will say our prayers that baby Lacey gets better real soon. Please keep us posted on how she is doing. |
