Owed to All of you @ finchforum
Elana
I was just sitting here thinking about you and all the people here @ finch forum are..
I was tough gal, went through bird crisis before, I could handle anything (beats chest)......but never before with finches.
Last weekend, I found myself in the most panic, ridiculously lost state dealing with when those toxins killed over half my parents
And you all reminded me of when I was a teen and Myrna and Sandy were teaching me the ropes of raising blue jays, robins, squirrels.......the COUNTLESS hours they spent on the phone with me back in the day when a bird would fall-under, a squirrel would not eat, a perplexing problem arose.
Was some of the best years of my life and I got to do it all over again this last week. You M'am Elana, never missed a phone call. And you believed in me just like they did ....way back when. And all those babies are alive because of that interaction, and the cheering and scrambling of others who went flying to their resources to find issues to problem solve(Debbie, Sally, WildBill, Sheather) And those countless people who cheered from the sidelines (you ALL know who you are and tag me in your posts ....I will cheer for you as well and help if needed!!)
My half dead emanciated chicks went from this To the courage to do THIS

Re: Owed to All of you @ finchforum
To all those going thru a baby crisis. Please practice BEFORE it happens. Please learn how to mix up formula, have a heat lamp on hand, know how to scoop tiny bits from a toothpick onto your finger...................get aquainted with this NOW. Cause it WILL eventually mean the very life an death of your flock or birds one day.
And from the bottom of my heart, everyone who has helped me, cheer me and (Elana who baby sat me)
Thankyou
Move this to breeding if you see think it needs to be there. I just wanted everyone to see it first!
Hugs all around~

Elana,
I would have been a complete wreck without you. Do you have ANY idea how beautiful you are?
