Hi everyone.
Just another quick update on No1 & No2.
Both are eating really well.
They have put on 11 grams each in just under a week.
I took them to the vet today to have their splay legs fixed.
I have tried to do it myself but with my fear/phobia of holding them tight and straightening a leg its just too hard.
The vet put a hobble on them.
I am so relieved it is going well.
Its the best $35 I have ever spent !!!!
I have video and pics of them, but I cant upload the video.
I think they are too big.
Does anyone know how to make a video shorter ????
Donut is enjoying being an uncle.
he keeps asking "what are you doin ????"
Every time I feed the babies, he comes over, checks everything out, runs down my arm and tries to steal their food.
I will post some pics later today.

Great news donut, I'm glad to hear it, but for future reference you should really fix splayed legs immediately. Anyways I'm glad to see things looking up for the flock!

Hi OZ
We have been trying to fix the legs ever since Von confirmed they were splaying.
We tried a few options but I couldnt do them.
I have a I fear/phobia of holding them tight and straightening a leg and when they needed to be adjusted I couldnt do it.
I couldnt hold them for Wayne to do.
We kept them confined and restricted in a bowl with padding on the sides to keep them from going out.

Yeah splayed legs are a nightmare to deal with. Luckily it's all under control and that's all that matters. Anyways keep the updates coming. I'm about to go check out the pics!
