Broken Heart

[Chickadee7790]

I just needed to share this with people who will understand the heart break. My husband came home today to find a hawk eating my favorite girl, Giselle, aka Sweet Pea. She is the beautiful lady in my avatar. We've had a very special bond since she was a teeny baby chick. One of her eyes did not develop properly, so she was always a little skittish with the other chickens. Other than her poor sight in that one eye, she never had any other issues to worry about. She was my daily snuggler who came running the second she saw me each day. It will not be the same going home today and not seeing her sweet little waddle. We all know going in that predators are always out there and inevitably we will have losses. It just does not lessen the heartache that comes with losing one.

im so sorry i understand how you feel i lost bunny from coccidiosis she was my pride and joy, my best friend. i understand the feeling of feeling broken and blaming yourself. if you feel anything how i felt at first. you find yourself unintentionally looking for her and then you remember shes not there youll probably cry alot. you might feel hopeless. you might feel like you want to forget to numb the pain.

I'm so sorry we lost our whole flock recently and it was just so devastating..we knew predators were around.. and it wasn't about the "if" they attack, but the "when" they attack..I'm so sorry for you guys!

LORD JESUS IS KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS!
