We had our first patient in today.
A little collared dove called Hope. A lady nearby found her looking distressed and brought her over. She is suffering badly from Trichomaniasis (Canker). Her chances are not very good but we are giving her a go. She is being medicated and crop fed and is snuggled down on a heat pad.
Fingers crossed for her eh?

Happy new Year to you all at Wing & a Prayer.
ReplyDeleteHow is Andrew?
Happy New Year OM & GB
ReplyDeleteHere's hoping Hope is comfortable and warm now. It has been so very cold last couple of days I lost my oldest hen yesterday (she was over 10 yrs old) but very much loved by us, I shall miss her.
Love to you all

Sorry to hear about your hen OB :( we lost a little old owl over Christmas too.
ReplyDeleteAndrew is doing well, his tail feathers are now coming through and he will be well ready for release in spring. :)
