Freddy doesn’t seem to care. :hide

The birds are all in bed and Max wouldn’t go! I think he just finally went in but he kept running around looking for his sister and clucking his head off for so long 😭😭 and then he ran in the run and jumped up high on the perch in there and was clucking even louder and frantically, presumably so...

Thanks! I didn’t end up eating her.

Thank you!

I should do that 😊

Look at that beautiful green on her though 😭:hit And first pic was right when I found her and before I could even check if she was alive she twitching and dead. 😭

That makes sense! Thanks! I just wasn’t sure since the rest of her body looks intact but maybe it traveled deep into the body already? Too late either way as we already picked her up.

Ah okay that makes sense.

Yeah it’s terrible! And also I just checked and the hawk only injured her head and the rest is still perfectly intact so would it still have been unsafe? I am assuming it is now because she’s been sitting for almost an hour? But now I kind of wonder if I could have just cut her head off. :hide...

The weird thing was both my bird and the hawk were perfectly healthy and beautiful looking. I think the hawk was just hungry because of the cold and my bird was just young and inexperienced I think. 5 months old and never really seen predators. We’ve had a few attempts but they always made it...

That’s good you didn’t get sick!

Aww that’s sad!!

I think it only touched her head but now I realize I think I’d be too sad to eat her anyway. :hide

Thank you :hugs

Yeah, I’ve had hawk losses before but this one was the worst because I watched her die and was so close to being able to save her if I had gone out just a little sooner :hit Thank you though. :hugs And that’s a good idea too! But I’d worry she’d be dug up. My rooster died in July and we...

That’s a good idea! Thanks! I was thinking of taking her up into the woods far away from the coop and leave her there or maybe somewhere off property.

Thanks, I’m trying not to

It’s just awful because it’s one thing when the bird is already long dead when you find them or just goes missing or whatever but to see that hawk fly away from my baby and then watch her twitch and bleed out and take her last breaths.... it was awful. :hit And the D*** hawk didn’t even fly...

Thanks! That makes sense! I should have been watching them but I went inside for just a few minutes 😭😭 I guess it was a horrible idea to let them out before the storm too (we’re supposed to get a snowstorm tonight) but I wanted them to stretch their legs some since they’re gonna be locked inside...

Thank you! That’s what I figured but wasn’t sure. Just hate for her death to be for nothing :hit
