RIP #16

Post by Killerbunny » Thu May 23, 2019 9:20 am

I had to let #16 go this am. She had gone slightly lame and one of her hocks looked "odd" sort of twisted. She looked worse this am and sadly with big heavy birds the kindest thing is to let go. Very upsetting.

That's so sad. She had a good life with you, and I'm sure that you did right by her.

Well they quit! I think the other girls were pushing them off the nest so they didn't commit.
