I'm so bummed to hear this. I finally got around to checking out the update and was thrilled for you that he was doing well.

I'm sorry, man.

Sucks to loose them bro,you had him a good bit longer then you would have
if you would have followed the average methods people insist on.
Ive lost several over the years,its disheartening but you have to move on
and care for the rest.
That experience you dont find in books,hang in there

Dont be to quick with the culling,some of these runt guys do make it
if you ease them along for several months.
Im all for culling for the visual deformities,its the internals that are the crap shoot

I'm sorry to hear the little guy did not make it. He seemed like a survivor.

I agree with Tommy that culling should only be used in obvious cases. Some of them do thrive after a rough start.

Thanks everyone. I really was hoping to keep this guy as my "special boy" but i guess it wasnt meant to be. I really thought he was gonna make and hoped he was.
You guys are great and nice to see compassion on here from people that live miles apart.
Thank you !
Rich

Sorry to hear you lost him. Good effort on your part to try and keep him alive though.
