Good morning guys

My darling princess layer lost her battle to stay with me this morning. She was doing so well after having the implant fitted but over the last few days she just wasn't herself and nosedived yesterday....she didn't eat or drink, I tried all day to tempt her, worms, tuna mince,grapes....she just wasn't interested then about six last night she tucked herself in the corner of the run and I knew I was going to lose her..

 

I popped her in with the girls for her last night and this morning I went to let them out and called them as per usual and I heard this strange bang...when I opened the cube she was on her side with her eyes closed, so I picked her up and she snuggled into me and we cuddles for about five minutes and she passed away.

 

I am sure she waited for me so we could say goodbye to each other...she was such a brave girl and I'm so proud of her...

 

Please don't send sad messages....smiley faces and clap's only please as I want her life to be celebrated.....she deserves that....the photo of her was taken recently

 

....sleep tight my lovely princess layer...a royal name for a majestic lady :clap

 

My first loss....and it stings

I am smiling and I know you said no sad posts but yours has made me cry (which I'm not given to) :roll: Well done you and Princess Layer though. You because you gave her such a lovely forever home and her because she fought so hard and waited to see her best person at the end to get the best send off a chicken could have. Smiling now 8)

Funny you should say that redsunset. I volunteer for the BHWT and during our next rehoming I am going to bring some strays home, maybe three or four.. I am just looking for a second hand classic to pop them in:)

 

Paula was a star when they all attacked poor solo and it's all credit to her solo is doing so well. Paula took some girlies at our last rehoming too so how amazing is she!!

 

Lovely photos if your lot! Doodlebugs and dogs...life is pretty sweet isn't it xx
