Mrs Nesbitt Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 Well when you own chickens (or any animal really) it has to happen at some point - found one of the chooks dead this morning . She was one of two chooks my neighbour gave me earlier in the summer (natural selection had left her with just two and, she as has decided to have a break from chicken keeping for a while, she donated them to my cause ) Nothing suspicious, just old age I think. She seemed to be slowing down a lot and I was expecting it every day really. Still, at least she had a happy life and got to free range lots once she came to me...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 What a shame . Still, as you say, at least it was old age rather than illness or a nasty end and she'd had a good life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALNICK Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 we are sorry to hear about loretta, its a shame when you lose any animal but at least she died of old age rather than something else which would have caused you further worry. calnick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 2, 2008 Share Posted November 2, 2008 I lost one of my girls on Monday, it's so sad when they have to leave us but we have lovely memories to treasure, as I bet you do. Hopefully it brings you comfort to remember you gave her a good life and she was loved. Night, night Loretta xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
