On Sunday we said goodbye to our dear sweet Tilly Tot. Tilly was about 6 and came to us in 2019 with her sister Tilda, they had been rescued from a free range farm. Tilda had a broken leg and Tilly had a twisted, tilted neck. Tilly had recently been diagnosed with raised liver enzymes and was responding well to medication. She had good days and bad days. Then her last 3 days she went down hill very quickly. All she wanted to do was drink copious amounts of water and sit. She had sour crop and wasn't happy. I emptied her crop twice and it filled right back up.
Tilly was our bossy little wonky girl who was loved by everyone. Astro, Cherry Bomb and Ripley miss her and are bewildered at why she isn't chasing them away from the feed jars. Thank you so much to Dr Gloria from for coming out on a Sunday to help our girl pass peacefully and with dignity. We all miss our Totty girl. 🌈💔💜😔🥰❤️

Thank you everyone. Dora has now been rehomed.

Sweet Dora needs a safe new home with some accepting hen friends. Susan, located at Hoddles Creek, adopted her in January, but her current flock of 7 isa browns will not accept her and even with supervised socialisation, they are still attacking her quite viciously, causing injury, so she's currently separated and on her own. Hens need friends!
If you can offer Dora a lovely safe new home, please send a PM and we'll get you in contact with Susan.

This little girl was found wandering over at Ceres in Brunswick last Sunday ( not one of the Ceres hens) and has been staying with Merinda for the week. She needs to find a safe and loving forever home for her, as she doesn't have room to keep her. She took her to the vet for a check up where she got a clean bill of health, other than the awful feather loss and redness, that should clear up when she's in a stable environment with good food. If you are interested in her, please send a PM and we'll get you in contact with Merinda.
