I don’t really want to take over this thread or avert focus from the OP’s original issue, so I will give you an update on my thread in a little bit.
I’ll tag you.
I agree with Sourland.
Depends on how hard you stepped on it.
Earlier this year, I stepped on a chick (the neck) and it died immediately. It began flapping around in circles for 30 seconds, then it layed still, dead.
I would definitely give it a chance. Keep us dated. Good luck.
