Good reviews so far from others.<br /><br />Chickens are so hard to diagnose. Sometimes letting nature take it's course is the most sensible way to go. You've done all you could do to help. She certainly looks healthy on the outside anyway. Hope she makes it.Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9040199365888949396.post-40167523463580747722018-04-19T17:44:41.064-06:002018-04-19T17:44:41.064-06:00Thanks Chas, more coming soon.Thanks Chas, more coming soon.Nancy In Boisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03749272217529362089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9040199365888949396.post-78551842882458019322018-04-18T21:02:01.078-06:002018-04-18T21:02:01.078-06:00I'm so sorry that you are going through this. ...I'm so sorry that you are going through this.

She didn't come down from her perch today, so I brought her outside. Letting nature run it's course at this point.

Vet visits are ridiculously expensive for us lately and we're just fed up. I bought a few books on holistic pet care...it's just for dogs and cats though.Rain https://www.blogger.com/profile/14377719049819222133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9040199365888949396.post-16926643111922451252018-04-16T11:37:00.372-06:002018-04-16T11:37:00.372-06:00Hi Susan, I don't really know if the arnica di...Hi Susan, I don't really know if the arnica did anything since I couldn't really see any big effect. I had to decide what to do with her ultimately so I decided to put her back out with her flock, she seemed to perk up quite a bit, but is still having trouble moving around. I looked at other Alternatives and decided to let nature take its course. I think she's four or five but she was definitely the smaller of the three birds. Lesson learned I will not be buying the slightly smaller breed ever again. She was always picked on because of that and I didn't really know that her breed was a small she is. She is a petite sweetie! But so far she is hanging in.Nancy In Boisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03749272217529362089noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9040199365888949396.post-71018062260862021062018-04-16T09:33:37.220-06:002018-04-16T09:33:37.220-06:00I'll be interested to know if you were able to...I'll be interested to know if you were able to come up with a solution for her pain. I am dealing with something similar, although I think she injured herself when we had all the ice. She gets around okay, but is not comfortable. This is usually the time of year when the weaker, older hens just give up the ghost - having barely made it through the winter. I am always sorry to lose my older girls.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573143203599624833noreply@blogger.com
