    PLEASE PLEASE HELP broody hen dilemma

    Thank you also for your reply. It doesn’t have anything to do with religion for me, it’s just that I’m very soft hearted. I don’t want to think I am killing the chick. You think if I cracked it open I would find anything? I probably will end up just throwing it out, better to be safe than sorry :(

    Rooster just up and died. :(

    Probably.. I hate to think about it, Rapunzel was such a sweet girl. :hit I doubt lightning struck her, my guess would have to be there was just a loud clap of thunder that gave her a heart attack. :hmm
