Is it a dicky heart?
« on: June 04, 2009, 16:09 »
One of my CLs - probably aged about three years - is worrying me. Her comb, previously nice and red, is looking a darkish red with a blueish/purplish edge. Only noticed this change today. Please advise me what to do/not do. Many thanks.
3 o'clock is both too early and too late to start anything - Sartre said so.

Sorry it does sound like a heart problem - or it could also be a severe respiratory infection

Thank you for being so nice and optimistic Charlwood. Unfortunately today she was off her legs and I had to do the deed.  Poor little mite couldn't even raise a cheep.
