BYC Café

[DobieLover]

Good morning, Cafe. Thanks for the coffee, Shad.
Well, Lucy's time has come. She went down hill several weeks ago, rallied but is extremely lethargic now. She actually slept with Kerrie and the kids in the ward last night as she was too weak to get up the ramp to the roosts.
My neighbor will shoot her tonight. He was supposed to do it this morning before dawn but that ship has sailed.
I still cannot bring myself to euthanize my birds. I must figure out a way to get myself to do this. I am thinking about going with him tonight and at least witnessing it. She is a sweet little hen and I can't stand to see her suffering.

so sorry @DobieLover Take comfort in the knowledge that you gave her a good life.

Sorry about Lucy. You don't need to witness the shooting.

Good morning, Cafe, and thanks Shad.
