i was with a professional pest control person, discussing options for the rodents that have invaded the barn and chicken area and maude barged in behind us, thru the chicken house and out into the coop. she had edna before i could grab her. edna died while i was setting up a cage to get her to the vets. the other chickens are upset and had surrounded her while i was gone to the garage to find a cage. i am so sorry edna, i can't believe i let this happen.
I'm so sorry this happened, Carol - for you and for Edna. I remember the day I picked Edna up - a funny naked little chicken who talked incessantly. Surprisingly, she accepted Hank, the bully of the chicken coop, as a best buddy to roost with, and when Hank was adopted I swear she sobbed as she watched him leave! But before long, she was taking up with Jerome. From a naked little chicken to a beautiful, beautiful bird with a distinct personality and friendly demeanor.....Saints gave her the opportunity to live life as it should be lived. Thank you for that.
