A tragedy happened late afternoon today... My Mohawkie died.

(Pic in avatar) as a pullett she ran and jumped into my arms when I called her
As a hen she cuddled with me daily, so easy going, sweet Mohawks
She survived that bobcat she was the one that out ran the bobcat
She cuddled with me this morning, looked just fine and healthy
this afternoon I gave them treats she was in the front row eating just fine
Literally 20 minutes later China alerted me to a problem as I get closer Mohawks was dead in the middle of her family under the bush

In a way she was my fave, she was my jealous one didn't like it when others cuddled with me

We will miss her... love ya Mohawkie

omg that sucks!!! Sounds like maybe a stroke or something! Sounds like it happened fast and she didn't suffer much..... So sorry to hear that.

OMG that is so sad, i know how you feel, so sorry you lost your dear sweet girl , gosh it was possibly sudden heart failure, i lost a healthy active SLW she was fine on this late afternoon eating and happy chasing around after bugs & hours later i found her dead under my porch...? no marks on the body , but i felt it was sudden heart failure , these things happen but at least they did not suffer.

I walk like cement man too after a day of hard labor. That's an excellent analogy! If I had the energy and strength of a 20 year old with the brain of a 50 year old, that would be great!

@meetthebubus sorry - really sorry. Maybe a scorpion bite? Crapola anyhow!
@Diannastarr you have described me every morning! Hate walking like the cememt man to get my morning pain meds but you do what works. Take care of that thumb - my DH broke his thumb while roller skating at the rink and didn't do anything - ended up with an operation to fix it and a whole lot of time in a cast! I would love the STAMINA of a 20 year old! Can you imagine? My new coop would already be done instead of on day three and putting the roof on. WOWZERS!

For mohawkies death I have a feeling it was sudden prolapse with no symptoms beforehand whatsoever
