Partridge silkie chick |
This is the 22 of Sept I had him in lighter weight braces for his or her legs.
The 23 of Sept. I had to remove the braces , It was running and tripping with them on.I named it Fedora. I gave Fedora a teddy bear and sprinkled some food on it. So It started eating a bit more. Still not using pooing but a little once a day. .
The 24th of Sept. Fedora loves the bear. I take it outside to get sun at least 10-15 min a day. Fedora is getting stronger and has just a little issue with the right hip. But it doing very well walking.
The 25th. 2 eggs hatch at my daughters. She brings them over. Fedora is so surprised to see them. Fedora, starts eating and scratching her feet on the ground. There is still a little slipping of the left hip. But, S/he had her first normal poo.So looks like this is going to be a normal chick. :)
I am so thrilled and happy. :)

You are so kind to the animals. My mother once opened an egg which the mother didn't hatch. She thought it is a bad egg, but suddenly there was still an immature chick inside not opened prematurely. She improvised an incubator by putting warm water to bottles, put them in two sides with towels. The chick was still very weak and very wet, so mother dried it. In 2-3 days they saw improvement, eventually now it is already as big and strong as the normal siblings.
