gavclojak Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 My lovely sweet kind soul Barbara fell asleep in the night and didn't wake up. she was the last of my first girls and she really was a dear old lady. she hobbled around on her arthritic leg and was a real joy. she had a lovely day yesterday, I thought she was quiet so gave her a tin of tuna (not the whole tin!) she had a lovely free-range then put herself in the cube around 5.30 last night and went to sleep. No sad faces please, just claps and smiles, she deserves that!! sleep tight old girl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luvachicken Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Awww, she sounds such a delight and what a lovely way to go. She obviously had a fantastic life with you. Sleep tight Barbara xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Maybe she thought to herself - 'What a lovely day, can't top that, that'll do me' Well done Barbara and well done Gavclojak for giving her such a good second life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsunset Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Barbara had a very charmed and happy life with you, and brought you hours of pleasure watching her blossom into a 'normal' chicken doing all manner of what all chickens no matter what country they reside in do! She would say thank you very much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkysmum Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Sorry to hear it but what a wonderful life she had. Thanks to you she felt the sun on her back and stood in the garden for showers, scratched for bugs and experienced real chicken life.

jimnpaula Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I am sorry to hear that the last of the little-legged wonders has left you, but what a wonderful retirement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavclojak Posted March 1, 2016 Author Share Posted March 1, 2016 Thanks Paula, that's why I'm not mourning her, she has a fantastic life, she was the boss of all the girls but wielded her power gently. She will be missed but her little life is celebrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
