In Any field of endeavor all that can be asked is for the person to to the best they can with what they have. No one has super natural power; no one is all knowing.

[@ayarosen1035]

This vet is amazing. You can really hear in her voice how much she cares about animals and what a big effort she made to keep him alive. I'm sorry it didn't work, but I'm really glad you found a vet you can trust in your area.

[@Tzarina8472]

We shall call her Doctor Love.

[@MissKing722]

I agree. She seemed like a very soft-hearted, honest, caring individual, that also knows her stuff. 🙌Thank god for that vet, and any vets like her. My faith in humanity was restored.

[@BrandenburgTV]

Sorry, but no. An amazing vet is aside you when your animals are sick. Amazing vets travel to their customers, they call you to say that they will be around. They know they get paid for the care they offer, not for the meds they are selling. All in all, Jake and Becky need a frequent visiting vet. A caretaker, someone who loves animals, not just fixing issues when it's quite late. -- Do you recall how long Jake already had described i.e. the problems with the white peacocks? So how come the vet wasn't there before? Not on me to drop moods. I easily could simply watch and shut up, like most of the subscribers... The simple problem is that even I am suffering watching this from 6,000mls away. Maybe Jake didn't say it all, maybe it's the same as it's here, where you really have to SEEK for vets, who are doing this job because of the love they have for animals, instead of the greed on becoming insanely rich by ripping of the owners of their pets... I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable, just wondering where it leads to if we just pay what vets are requesting from us while they didn't succeed. I excuse myself for such a terrific request. I know the rule is to be always mellow... "Everything's gonna be ok!" Tell this to your pet, when you turn it over into the hands of a vet, that makes you as the owner hope, but delivers you the leftover body of your beloved pet, attaching some bill...

[@carmenr5618]

@BrandenburgTV I totally agree with everything you just said if real caring vet really cared they would have gone to him and helped not just helped them selves instead of just putting more money in their own pocket....it's expensive now and days especially for exotic animals I feel for Jake and Becky. Hope all goes well and God bless you all. Happy holidays.

[@OscarChicken]

@@BrandenburgTV Totally agree with you. They need a frequent vet visit specially with poultry.

When he said, "bye buddy, sorry this didn't work out better for you," made my heart break because I've said the same thing for my birds when they don't make it.

Lessons in animal husbandry are almost always hard learned. I'm sorry you've had to learn these lessons this way, but hopefully you'll carry them forward and improve the lives of the rest of your flock.

Doubtless they have already improved the health and lives of the other flocks; we saw them treating everyone for lice.

[@jeanbeanie5785]

The Vet Cared; That's what matters. This was an awful situation, and my sympathies for the loss of your peacock. You all did the best you could, and that's all anyone can ever reasonably ask.

My bird also died today😢

[@hashimahmed2575]

Aww I’m so sorry for your lost 😞

[@Guidingsonar]

Hate to say it, but their bird's injury is most likly their own fault. How they handle their bird it is easy for their wing to get caught on the cage and as he just pulls him out... It would easily break their wing. Someone on the last video pointed it out.

[@marilynorr6582]

So sorry for you guys and the lady vet! Happy he will be buried on your farm. I think it is wonderful that you let your children be involved. God bless you and yours. Thank you for caring for your precious animals!

[@TheRoseFyre]

My condolences for your loss. As a Vet Tech Student, I would recommend doing the poop test for the rest of the birds, and possibly treating the soil now that Winger has already been buried there, as the ova or eggs of these intestinal parasites can live dormant in the soil for years. Ideally, cremation and burial after is better to prevent remnant disease from spreading. I hope you guys never have to deal with something like this again. All the best to your wonderful family and animals.

[@DaiyuWolf-drag0n]

To the vet that helped this Peacock we thank you for what you have done, you tried to save this bird's life and we thank you for the kindness you had to help these wonderful folk. You did everything you possibly could to make sure he would've had a wonderful life, in the end, he may have passed away but he is still here in our hearts things are not always easy and by far you are one of the few vets that I have seen actually care about the animals.

[@naomihayler4793]

So glad you found such a wonderful vet to help, you can tell how much she cared for Winger. It’s lovely your community helped find her for you 🥰 That’s lovely your buried him in the aviary xx

[@tara_a_santiago]

If nothing more, you have facilitated a relationship with a Vet who has the same passion and respect for Avians. She did her very best to try and help Winger and that’s a blessing in itself. I hope she visits more of your videos so that she can truly see how amazing you care for your birds and will be available in the future to your farm.

[@watchmeimflying]

I hope you keep up with this avian vet. I’m kind of surprised you didn’t already have one handy with all those birds and I’m sorry you had to learn the hard way.

[@debh3404]

Because there wasn’t an avian vet “handy.” They had to drive an hour to get to the one that did the surgery. How would he have known that there was an avian vet an hour away?

[@avksmith]

@@debh3404ideally you research nearby options and connect with them when purchasing birds so you know where to go proactively

[@debh3404]

@@avksmith I really don’t think that they were very experienced with birds before they got the poultry. I’m with you and definitely have an avian vet and a reptile vet and a dog vet. I know from experience (as you likely do as well) that not all vets are created equally and a specialist who is used to handling and working with the species we keep are worth their weight in gold. I think that they went into keeping poultry without much background for sure. And country farmers have to learn how to do many things themselves that we would bring our animals to the vet for. Add that to the fact that most of the poultry that farmers keep aren’t pets… Some are more knowledgeable for sure but I don’t think that most farmers go through the researching that you or I have done. The interest and the amount of time they have for research definitely isn’t the same as mine. Also I automatically test any exotics for parasites the very first thing. I can’t imagine having poultry and not knowing about poultry mites, lice, internal parasites etc. That should be Poultry 101, if you know what I mean.

[@avksmith]

@@debh3404 yeah. I was surprised they didn’t already have diatomaceous earth for dust baths n stuff already but good that they got that now. But yeah a lot of people get into it without knowing all that much. It’s a different and more risky approach than what I tend to do but yup, it happens all the time. Glad they have a connection with a good bird vet now though!

[@alisav8394]

I actually haven't even heard about avian vets until I became interested in parrots. In my (small European) country you just get a chicken or any other bird and if something happens you either fix it on your own or you let it die. So I'm not surprised they didn't have an avian vet

I wanted to thank you for sharing Winger's story. I don't have any peacocks but I do have chickens. I had no idea about the mites or lice until I watched your videos. I had noticed my chickens losing feathers more than their usual molt. I have one named Fuss britches who I noticed was almost totally bald and her waddle is flopping over and she was secluding away from the rest of the flock. I looked up info about the mites and lice and lice is the issue. I cleaned the coop and treated the nesting boxes with permethin and DE and I also dusted her with Sevin dust and DE. She is already feeling better and venturing back out with the flock. I'm so thankful for your videos. I feel Winger's life was not in vain. His purpose was fulfilled by educating y'all and your viewers. He was a very special bird. Godspeed Winger.

[@queeniesavage]

yes thank you. i learned a lot

[@AlexFisher67]

So sad little Winger passed away, but at least he's no longer in pain. Glad you were able to learn and grow from the experience. It's so hard losing a beloved bird, especially when they seem so close to pulling through. I've had my fair share of heartbreak with my birds and it's never easy. Shout out to the avian vet (and all avian vets). There is such a shortage of them in the world and they really do put their hearts and souls into caring for their patients as best they can with very little reward. Your vet seems like no exception and I can tell just by the quality toys and items they had at the front of their practice that they're very well versed in exotic bird care. She's definitely a keeper! Not sure if anyone already mentioned this to you, but in the future, at least for disease blood testing of exotic birds, you can save a ton of time and money by using a mail-in disease testing service (e.g. BirdIQ). You collect the samples yourself at home in the environment the bird is most comfortable in. BirdIQ provides instructions on how to do this and I know there are other labs out there as well. It's a very easy process and much cheaper than going through the vet. Best of luck on any future peacock adventures and give Blue lots of extra love. 🦚

[@bronwynhl]

im so sorry for your loss, and im glad you were able to get them vet treatment. it might be worth testing across your entire bird population to see if this was an isolated cause with the internal parasites or more of a widespread issue for your flocks. i think you needed to have been a little clearer or have had it earlier in the video that the wing inury had potentially happened on the farm, and that this was a more likely instance based on the newer vets opinion. you were very lucky the vet went through with the proceedure given the previous videos and i think you really have to give a public apology to the previoous vet. also the environmentalist in me says that bag you buried the peacock in is going to exist in the ground for hundreds of years and you really should have buried the bird straight in the ground. its not only an environmental hazard but being that shallow a grave theres a chance wildlife and your future bird residents of the area can dig that up and ingest the plastic. overall though yaall definitly did the best you could. and i hope you take onboard all the lessons youve learnt.

[@5kamon]

I'd be more worried that it could spread infection.

[@OfficialMyxomatosis]

What is being missed, regardless of whether the deceased bird is in an _environmentally unfriendly trash bag or not,_ the carcass should NOT have been buried anywhere near where other animals of any species are allowed to roam. Since the Adults decided to bring the bird home, *the body should have been burned to protect the flocks.*

[@kisscat74]

Yeah, never to take the advise from youtube commentators and take the animal to the vet. The original vet horribly mangled the bird and it took him over a month later and haggling to even find another to do basic service.

[@flibbertygibbette]

@@YujiUedaFan Have you ever worked on a farm? Or owned a farm? I don’t, but I come from a family of farmers and have farmer friends, and most take care of their own birds and other animals for most things, and don’t involve a vet unless there’s something major that happens that warrants the (usually considerable) cost. Even then it can be really difficult to find a vet to treat anything that isn’t a small furry pet. A friend had a cow she loved but had to put down because she couldn’t find a vet who would come out and help her where her farm is. There had been one but she retired and nobody took her place. Plus, vets are expensive. Where I am a check-up is $50-75 per animal. I don’t know what the cost is in Missouri but no doubt it isn’t cheap. Multiply that by so many animals and you’ll see why farmers as a rule only go to a vet when absolutely necessary, and thus why it’s hard to find specialty vets who can treat birds, etc. Winger’s surgery probably cost into the hundreds, if not well over $1000. So when I say they did the best they could with the information they had at each stage, I mean it.

At least out of all of it you found a good avian vet to rely on, you noticed and treated the lice problem in the flock, and you now know of the worm problems in the flock and also what probably killed the pea chicks and the hen. With all the new information, you should hopefully have better luck with white peacocks in the future when you decide you’re ready for them again. I look forward to that day, and wish you good luck with the next round of white peacocks.

I watch your channel for quite a while now even though I have no birds and I absolutely have no idea how to handle them. Even I am in tears now :( You're doing a great job and there was nothing more you could do. Kindest greetings and condolences from germany ❤

The wifey and I were thinking that would be the next step. Poor lil fella. Good luck.

Winger brought a lot of new information and connections to the table. Although he didn't get to have the life we hoped for, I hope that our memories of him will benefit future generations of birds; both the birds on your farm and the ones of anyone who watched Winger's story. You have my condolences. Lots of love from somewhere else in Missouri.

Dear Doctor Love You sounded a lot like my favorite vet. You put your heart into your work and you go the extra mile and you keep fighting for your patients with everything you've got until there's nothing left to give. God Bless.
