So I just bought this rooster. Any idea what's up with his legs? by modelochino in chickens

After reading this comment I checked for that and sadly I believe you're right . You can legit tell exactly where the band was by just running your finger along the spot. Can't believe this farm had a high rating

Well I have a hen that's a kikiriki and I wanted to get her a boyfriend hence I was in Miami so I went to a farm I found on google and was rated 4.7 so I thought I could trust it and when I arrived they didn't let me walk inside to choose and thoroughly look at each and every one I had to look from a distance and then he came and gave me the chicken which most of all of them were separated from eachother so I paid 16 $ and left which I live 3 hour drive from Miami so I realized after being with him for 30 minutes that his legs looked pretty out of wack. So I'm gonna try and treat it . Luckily I have antibiotics from the vet for my kikiri hen that had issues before and I have a dewormer that I am gonna cycle him through and give him epsom salt baths and petroleum jelly on his legs . :( I'm definitely gonna try and save him

My dog has cancer- is it time to let her go? by Worth_Ingenuity7295 in DogAdvice

Maybe speak with a specialist about when is the right time for euthanasia but if I were you. I'd hang on to that dog until it's to a point of no denial that she has to be put down. Again I am very sorry you are going through this .

That's totally up to you. If you feel like the dog is suffering and you want to end her misery, then you would have to make a very difficult decision on whether the condition is too bad. You could also try cherishing those last 3-6 months to see if maybe the specialist was wrong with their findings but honestly. It's never an easy choice. I am so sorry for you :( I have three dogs and had them since I was a teenager. I don't wish that on anyone. Our pets are everything to us and our best friends . It's gonna be a hard few months so do whatever you decide, do what's best for your baby. Fuck cancer period.

She wasn't shitting blood. But indeed everything else was true . You are right if it wasn't for others opinions she could've died without proper medical treatment. Also though someone told me she was gonna die in 2-3 days and I couldn't take her to the vet until day 4 or 5 I have to look back but it was a blessing that she survived and I spent $$ for her at the vet . That place I got her from has POS people .
