Thanks! she's feeling better today than all the week combined!Wsmith, hope this week goes better for Beth!I am thinking a predator got two of my girls today, one very old girl and one that had struggled with a broken leg? or other injury that had left her with a bum leg. I guess that is that. Nothing like splitting wood with the splitter and not being able to hear stuff going on!!! Amazing how it only took the weak ones though, really like they were making a Nature show.

Very glad that Beth is feeling better. I had a crow come to visit my coop area last week. It was pretty amazing at how big it was in comparison to how small some of my chickens are. He hasn't been back. I read that crows are good to have around for chickens.
Just looked it up. Apparently, crows will eat neglected eggs, and perhaps even small chicks, though its not common. The thing that is beneficial is that crows and hawks hate each other, so if you have crows around frequently, your chances of experiencing a hawk attack on your chickens goes down. The crows will apparently gang up on the hawks to protect their own young and drive the hawk away.
