sick chicken



I found this on one of the chickens sites. This woman had a sick nankin chicken. I think a nankin is a bantam breed. i say that if a chicken is sick and you don't think it will get better, kill it! this is showing mercy and protecting the rest of the flock. A chicken when it gets sick usual will not get better. this woman took her chicken to a vet and the truth is it probably it will die even after the vet doctored it. She is upset , the vet tried to charge her 800 dollars and then adjusted the bill to 239 dollars. this is what she wrote about the vet. She would have been better service to her bird if she had destroyed him before she took it on a fools errand. you can click on the bill and read it. I went back and read more and this chick was 6 weeks old! A total waste and she paid with a credit card. Even she said she was sure it would die.

Woe is me. I never saw it coming. This predator, this evil nuisance, didn't scare me at first. After all, he walked in on two legs. And within five minutes of looking, poking, prodding, and sniffing my smallest, weakest nankin, this monster had the audacity to try and charge me over $800 so that he could tell me what was wrong with NoName. He even had the chick open its beak and say "ahhh".NoName? I guess it's easier to prey on small avian animals when you don't name them first, but he thought he had us targeted. But we wouldn't be mesmerized by his evil stare. Neither did we get away Scot free. Please look at this "vet's" bill.

I'm in full agreement with you; it's how I was raised. Chickens are livestock; I had a pet chicken or two when I was growing up, but they always ended up being absorbed into the general population.

To each her own, though. If someone has that kind of money laying around and wants to spend it on a six-week-old chicken, more power to her.

I do have a problem understanding why the vet charged that much; I guess he figured there's a sucker born every minute, and he might as well take advantage.

It is very expensive. I will not pay hundred dollars for curing a chicken
