A unknown cat came into our garden this am when I was sorting the girls - my dogs went mad and chased it and it ran into the WIR. In the chaos the mesh separating the baby pekins got pushed over and the bantams got out - my beautiful lavender and millefleur were killed :( I think possibly from shock as neither are marked). I only got the millefleur on Saturday - she was only tiny and Duck the lavender was my pride and joy - I am heartbroken, I am so careful with them - the little frizzle and wyandotte are OK as I managed to grab them :( Don't know what to do with myself .

I am so sorry to hear that. How awful for you. You must be in shock. If you can take any comfort from this, it sounds as though they did not suffer and you have done your best by them. It is just a shocking chain of events that you could have done nothing to prevent. Thinking of you.

You've bought tears to my eyes, I have them in a little box and have stroked them for ages, I think they may have just got crushed by the mesh or the dogs in the mayhem. I have just been and tidied up the WIR and have put the little frizzle in the eglu with the wyandotte (there is only a couple of weeks difference) and they seem to be getting along OK.

Oh no, I'm so sorry for you but there was nothing you could have done to avoid such a freak incident as this. I know from recent experience it's hard not to blame yourself but you really musn't, you obviously loved and cared about them.
