Half of it was gone. It wasn't covered by anything, but it was broken.
Lu Chen had always had good eyesight. He could see very clearly that its right leg was completely broken from the middle, leaving only a little bit of skin.
No matter how ferocious a bird was, it was still very fragile in the nestling stage. Its two calves were not even as strong as a matchstick, and its body had no ability to resist.
This was also why they wanted to build their nests as high and hidden as possible so that they would not be discovered by other predators.
Lu Chen took off his gloves, squatted down, and gently picked up the little chick.
After checking it carefully, Lu Chen's heart twitched slightly.
The injury of this nestling was more serious than he had expected.
In addition to its broken right leg, there were many bruises on its body, as well as hematoma of various sizes. Its crop was also extremely deflated. Clearly, it had not eaten for a long time.
Although it had already reached the stage of opening its eyes, it had already closed its eyes at this moment. It would only moan softly when Lu Chen touched it in pain, but it was already breathing less than it was breathing.
Logically speaking, these injuries on its body would definitely be fatal to a small bird's nestling.
The reason why it was still alive was that it was already relatively large and had begun to grow feathers. Moreover, its body was also larger and could withstand consumption.
Normally, when Lu Chen saw such a situation, he would think of a way to save it.
However, facing this little chick that was already motionless, Lu Chen hesitated for a moment.
It was too small, too fragile, and too severely injured.
Can he really be saved?
Because Lu Chen was already holding it in his hand, the people in the live broadcast room could also see that this little chick was not in an optimistic state. They were all a little anxious.
Brother Lu, Brother Lu, was this little guy bitten by Little Xue Feng to this extent? Was there still hope?
He was still alive! I can see it breathing! Host, save it!
Why isn't Brother Lu calling me? He had been especially nervous and enthusiastic when he encountered such a situation before!
"Because this nestling is seriously injured. I…its chances of survival are too low.”
Lu Chen hesitated for a moment, and his eyes were a little dejected.
If he had not obtained the expert-level veterinarian skills, he would have tried his best to give it a try.
However, with this skill, he was even more aware of what the hematoma on this little chick's body meant.
Moreover…the lesson from more than ten years ago made him unable to gain any confidence.
How?
That hope was too slim!
But Brother Lu, didn't you say it before? Regardless of whether he could be saved or not, he had to try first!
Lu Chen, whose mind had been in a mess, suddenly calmed down as if he had been electrocuted.
Yes, that was what he had said.
Regardless of whether he could be saved or not, he had to at least give it a try!
Even if he tried his best, there was only a 1% chance of success. But if he didn't try, it would be a 100% failure!
Lu Chen lowered his head. The appearance of the nestling in front of him gradually overlapped with the appearance of another nestling in his memory.
He could not make the same mistake again.
Let's give it a try!
Thinking of this, Lu Chen no longer hesitated.
He took out two towels from his backpack, tore open a self-heating sticker, and stuck it on the bottom of the towel. After folding it several times, he put the baby bird on it.
The baby bird, whose feathers had not fully grown, could only rely on its parent bird to gain warmth, and this baby bird had been thrown out for too long.
Therefore, if he wanted to save it, the first step was to ensure that its body temperature returned to normal.
Knowing that Lu Chen was busy, the two sisters obediently climbed down and quietly moved to the side of the towel that Lu Chen had just folded. They stretched their little heads out to see what was wrapped inside.
When Lu Chen saw this scene, he was so scared that his heart almost stopped beating. He thought that the sisters were greedy and quickly reached out to stop them.
"Wait, wait, this isn't food!! I'm not in the mood to eat!"
However, this time, Lu Chen had indeed misunderstood. The sisters had no intention of fighting, they were just curious.
Seeing that Lu Chen was stopping it, the small black flash python obediently swam to the grass at the side. It probably wanted to play with some insects or catch a few shrews to eat.
As for the white python, it had always been stubborn. If Lu Chen did not let it get close, it would stand further away.
He had to find an opportunity to see clearly before leaving.
And then…food.
Lu Chen noticed that although this nestling was small, its beak had already taken on a sharp yellow shape. There was also a small hook at the tip.
This meant that it was an insect-eating or carnivorous bird.
Ever since he found out that the two sisters no longer needed to eat worms, Lu Chen had not caught any more ladybug larvae. Naturally, it was impossible for him to have any in stock.
But now that the sky was slowly turning dark, who knew how much time it would take to catch the right bugs…
Lu Chen thought for a moment and took out a piece of rabbit meat from his pocket.
This was the meat that Little Butt Cut had cut off from the wild rabbits.
The big pieces of Lu Chen were all given to Xiao Xue. The small pieces and minced meat were dried and put in his pocket, leaving them as snacks for the two sisters.
At this moment, Lu Chen did not have anything else on him that was suitable for this little chick to eat. He planned to take some rabbit meat and grind it into minced meat for it to eat.
However, just as the rabbit jerky was taken out, Lu Chen did not even have the time to pick up a stone from the side and grind it when he saw a pure white shadow rushing over like lightning.
It took the meat jerky from Lu Chen's hand with its mouth.
It was the small white flashing python that had been watching from the side.
Not only did it finish eating, but it also angrily wrapped itself around Lu Chen's wrist. Its pair of small ruby-like eyes stared at him as if it was complaining,
The jerky belongs to me and my sister! Why should he give it to the little trash who just arrived!
How could Lu Chen not know what the small white python was thinking?
"Be good, just give it a little, just give it a little, okay? I promise I'll get fresh meat for you and Little Black tonight. Just give this dry meat to him, okay?
The two of you are the most obedient, so Abba must still like the two of you the most!”
Little Snow Wind, who was hiding at the side, said,"So love will disappear, right?"
Feeling Lu Chen's coaxing, the white python slowly let go of Lu Chen's wrist and climbed down reluctantly.
The two sisters were already very strong. The angry Little White had wrapped itself around Lu Chen's wrist and actually left a very faint red mark on his wrist.
Without the white python's obstruction, Lu Chen could quickly grind the meat jerky for this little chick.
Because the nestling could not eat much, Lu Chen did not need to make too much.
After grinding the meat, Lu Chen took out another piece of antiseptic. He used his fingernail to scrape off about one-sixth of the dosage and mixed it with the meat.
He took out a disposable syringe and sucked in the ground meat sauce mixed with water. He cut a section of the infusion tube, took off the needle, and put the tube back on.
Lu Chen carefully picked up the stack of towels.
With the towel and the self-heating tape, the nestling looked a little better, and the purple color on its body due to the low temperature had also faded a little.
However, its eyes were still tightly shut, and its breathing was rapid and weak.
Under such circumstances, it was definitely not possible to expect it to open its mouth to eat. That was why Lu Chen chose to use a soft tube to feed it.
Gently pinching open its tender yellow beak, Lu Chen carefully cut the round infusion tube and slowly stuffed it into its crop along its esophagus.
Her movements were smooth and gentle.
Brother Lu is so skilled! The little chick didn't even struggle!
F * ck, this is high skill. I used to feed my parrot cubs milk powder like this, but because I didn't stuff it properly, I wanted to play for half an hour every time. Brother Lu is so strong!
"After all, I've been raising birds for a long time in the past. This can be considered my old profession.
However, it did not struggle because it was too weak now.”
Lu Chen carefully pushed the minced meat into the baby bird's mouth and watched as the baby bird's crop slowly bulged.
After pushing half of the tube of minced meat in, Lu Chen gently pulled out the tube and pushed around the crop with his hand.
"Fortunately, there's no sticking."
Lu Chen heaved a sigh of relief.
"If you starve for too long, the crop may stick together, seriously affecting the nestling's feeding.
However, this little guy was quite lucky. Although he had been hungry for an unknown period of time, this situation did not occur. It was considered a blessing in disguise.”
After saying that, Lu Chen covered the towel on the little chick again and put it back.
Brother Lu, aren't you going to deal with its leg?
Someone in the live broadcast room was worried about the broken leg of the little chick.
"I can't handle it now."
Lu Chen shook his head.
"Its leg is completely broken. Only a little skin is left.
I don't have a sterile environment here. If I forcefully cut off the connected skin, it might cause even greater stimulation to it.
It was better to leave it alone and wait for a few days for the skin to die and fall off naturally.
Moreover, when I fed it just now, I also added antibiotics into it. The possibility of its legs getting infected is not high.
If it can persevere and recover as much strength as possible, I can deal with the other problems on its body.”
Lu Chen looked at the little chick and sighed softly.
"The rest will depend on whether it can compete or not.”
Work hard, he would definitely work hard!
In the past, there was a "Strong Pig", and this little chick of ours will definitely become a "Strong Bird"!”
Everyone in the live broadcast room cheered for this little guy, but Lu Chen's peripheral vision had already caught sight of the furry little shadow hiding behind the tree. He lowered his voice and shouted,
"Xuefeng, come here!"
