HennyPenny Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 She was nearly four and had been poorly for a little while now, so we were half-expecting it but it still wasn't nice to come home and find her. The question now is - what do we do with her? Can anyone advise please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moochoo Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 So sorry to hear you're sad news. Your vet will cremate her for a fee but you can dispose of her in your household rubbish too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peaches Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Hennypenny - sorry you have lost your girl, but that's a fab age, I think? We buried Samosa under (well, right by) our quince tree - which is quite small still and at the bottom of the garden - and buried her deep. Then we put stones (quite big) on the top, so that Mabel wouldn't dig her up. Personally, I love the fact that she is in the garden. We only had her 3 weeks and I was devastated by her death, so can't imagine what it must be like to have a chicken for as long as you have had Rita.

Budgies Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Henny Penny, so sorry to hear about Rita. I'm sure it was still a shock, even though she had been unwell. She lived to a good age and must have had a very happy life with you. RIP Rita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
