A few strategically placed fencing stakes/gardening stakes (the kind for landscaping cloth that you put under mulch in a garden bed to control weeds), will prevent them from doing that - if they try.
She was a lovely & sweet girl!❤️❤️❤️
Please don't let the new chicks annoy you - it wasn't their fault, and being so young, they wouldn't be so quick to pick up on your emotional vibes (plus, at that age they just plain old have too much energy to pause!). And, obviously by your pic, Grandma...
If the lower left chick is the one you are speaking of, I think there is too much grey compared to the chick from MyPetChickens - but then there could be variation - otherwise, seems a possibility. Also, IF it is a porcelain D'Uccle - very thick/raised comb spot for a girl if it is just 2 weeks...
Boneless Chickens!....oh, wait - isn't that what they call 'chicken tenders'?????
But wait...RC....I thought YOU were the Chicken Tender!!!
Now I'm really confused. Are they chicken tenders - or are you a chicken tender???
Oh, this is you - a chicken whisperer :lau
In all sincerity -...
Goldie Bird looks pullet-like to me....you don't want to keep her????
(Hen coloring, no drapey saddle feathers, no flag tail feather, hard to tell for sure, but hackle feathers don't look pointy....... :idunno )

I'm sorry, @ManueB, I know you love your flock, and losing any is hard enough, never mind in a way that hurts in and of itself.
For what it's worth, I appreciate your kindness, wisdom, and thoughtful posts - and I also completely understand the need to...
Wow, Lady Featherington really blends into those leaves well. Beautiful and camouflaged to boot - maybe the Army should commission her to work on their next set of camo wear for the troops!
Wow - she feathered quickly. (She really isn't THAT old, yet, is she? Kids these days - they grow up so fast!!!)
She just might give Phyllis a run for her money for status on the catwalk - she rocks that elegant, confident look! :love :love :love
