    The Rest In Peace thread

    I have actually lost a TON! It’s very heartbreaking. I will post as many as I have pictures of. Shirley, Goodness, and Mercy. Thick as thieves. Only twice, from the time that they where 2 weeks, until 22 weeks, I only saw them grazing separately.

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I don’t get why it has to be this way…. I had a hen, who attacked me more often than my meanest rooster. Even Bully Jail didn’t fix her. When I lost all of those, she had to be one of the 1/4 of my hens to survive! :he Why couldn’t it have been my Georgy?💖 That was my Georgy👆 Rest in peace...
