williamspencer98 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Sadly Prudence our beautiful Hampshire Red hen died this evening. She was amazing, with only 2 months and 2 days with her in my garden, its been amazing. Her feathers grew back and made her look even more gorgeous, but I reckon it was gapeworm that got my girly She kept extending her neck and opening her beak to breath (this was only 2/3hours before her death). What does everybody think? RIP Pru x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angeluk69 Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Sorry to hear about Prudence, and hugs to you One of mine had similar symptoms, and was off colour for a couple of weeks (I got my girls from MMF Welford too, so made sure I informed them when my Coral passed on). I had only had her for 6 weeks and 1 day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
