I'm sorry for your loss.
Thank you. Me too!
I did think she had a lot of fat deposits. I watched Cornell's poultry necropsy on youtube before and while I was doing this and their bird definitely had less fat.
We feed them a whole grain diet, 17-18% protein. Scratch at night when we lock them up. They occasionally get scraps of tomatoes, lettuce, etc, and when we go through the compost 1-2 times per week they fight over soldier fly larvae and beetles. Free range on 4 acres.
