Caramel was our LaMancha Doeling.

Last night at 8:00 she took her last bottle with gusto. Was running around like she always does, this morning, she was dead.

I have been given her Pen-G because of the really bad ear infection. But her last shot was at 7:00. I drew back on the needle, so I know I was not in a vain.

I don't think I am suppose to have LaManchas. I had one several years ago, she got out and ate a bunch of chicken feed and died. Now this with Baby Cara.

I am sticking with my Boers and my Nubians.

aww what a shame, I wonder if having a necropcy (autopsy) would be a good idea, the vet colleges love to be able to teach people.. they are inexpensive and might enlighten you somewhat?

Sorry you lost the kid.

I'm so very sorry. :hugs
We've had several peafowl disasters here, after a while I said, "OK, I get it, I'm not supposed to have them." and gave up.

Please let us know what you find out. Gotta keep learning.
