Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

[Lewis]

She has just died, I don't know how.

I found her this morning andshe has just died in my arms.

 

She had a good life.

She was THE best chicken in the world.

 

 

 

I love you babs, I will always miss you.

 

Lewis

Oh Lewis, I'm so sorry . She had a good life for a little chicken and died in your arms so you were with her at the very end, bless her little heart. RIP Babs.

[cliveb]

I am truly sorry for your loss

[Egluntyne]

I am very sorry to hear the news.

[Seagazer]

Sorry to hear the sad news.

[Pinkybijou]

Poor Babs, and poor you. I can feel the sadness coming from your words. I'm sure she had a fabulous life and died happy.

[SharonX]

Dad just came home for work and put her in a box.

I don't know what to do with her later, wait untill mom and brother get home and then we will probably bury her in the garden.

 

The house and garden wont be the same, no babs clucking around and running down to the patio for food.

She was one of the original 3 chickens we got, and the last of them.

 

I'm not a cry'y person but I am really upset. I think it's because she was fine yesterday and now gone forever.

[superjules]

Oh my goodness - you poor thing. I was watching the Babs video just the other day.

 

I'm so, so sorry.

[Mrs Frugal]

Oh Lewis, I think we all cry when we lose our hens, especially when it's our favourite one. I cried buckets when Clarry had to be put to sleep. They have such a special place in our hearts because they have such big characters. Babs was such a delightful little lady - I loved the video of her as she was so very sweet. She'll always be with you in your heart.

[deejmum]

I am so sorry, really sad. You poor thing.

[Egg Lou]

So sorry to hear your lovely Babs is gone I had endless fun watching her video.. such a character!

[chickenlass]

So sorry to read your sad news Having recently lost one of my own I can understand how awful you must be feeling. If she seemed OK yesterday then at least you can take some comfort from the fact that she didn't suffer a long illness or anything.

[Phosphorus]

Lewis I am so sorry. She was a gorgeous little chook - I remember the video clip of her, made me laugh so much. God bless her little heart and may she rest in chicken heaven.

[Lewis]

At least she didnt suffer for long as you say.

 

I finished my exams yesterday, so I am so glad that I was at home and she didn't die on her own.

 

It was just a huge unexpected shock, and I still don't know what happened.

[cathybc]

so sorry, she was such a cutie. Big hugs x

[Chickybaby]

I know exactly how you are feeling Lewis, I also lost one of my chickens on Monday.......she was called Babs too! It's heartbreaking but she died in your arms and I'm sure that would have been a comfort to her. R.I.P your Babs & my Babs x x

[lisa33]

Sorry to hear about Babs.

[Lewis]

I also lost one of my chickens on Monday.......she was called Babs too!

 

Sorry to hear that.

They can play in heaven together

[frenchlayer]

Dear Lewis.

 

Maybe by picking her up, you allowed her to go safely and quietly on her way.

 

Bless you.

[Ange1]

Oh Lewis that is sad and so sudden too.

 

Maybe you will find some confort that you have that lovely video clip to remember her by and we certainly all felt joy in watching her.

 

Big hug!

[Gamebird]

Sorry very sorry.

 

I remember the video clip and she really made me laugh when she came running across the lawn.

 

You must have some lovely memories of her.

[Cooks]

so sorry

[Lewis]

Thanks everyone.

Im feeling better now, still not sure how I feel.

A bit of an emotional day!

 

I will miss her though, don't know what I'll do this summer with no babs.
