    Drake mating/attacking my hens

    Dog Mauling

    Well, Willow took a turn for the worst this morning. She had very labored breathing and just acting as though she didn't generally feel good. She did drink and nibble a bit of eggs. When I got home from work Willow had unfortunately passed on. I wasn't attached to her at first but was kinda...
