I lost my sweet singer Doris.

Doris, my Blue Marans passed today. She was 3 years 7 months old. She was my largest hen, laid beautiful deep chocolate brown eggs, hatched my first brood of chicks (and let me play with them), and would jump up in front of my face to sing with me as I tidied the coop. She was my friend. Her voice was so distinctive I always knew where she was. Her sister was always right by her side. Henry the banty rooster loved her so much he would sit on her broad back and sleep there at night. She seemed to enjoy it. I’ll miss her so much.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Sounds like a very special girl and a very special bond. May you take comfort knowing she'll always be with you in memory and spirit

Oh gosh, I am so sorry she is gone. Its always hard on the heart to lose them. You gave her a wonderful life, she knows you loved her.

So so sorry for your loss
I know the feeling and it's far from swell.
She sounds so special and like she had an amazing life

Fly high and free, lovely Doris! You were very much loved. Hugs for both of you.
