I should start off by saying this was my first flock, and I've never lost a pet before.
3 of my chicks were killed yesterday by my neighbors dog. Long story, but she's been fined by the city and we are not speaking anymore.
So, I have been crying on and off for the past two days. I look at the spots they were buried in the yard and I cry. I feed the one who made it out okay and when she comes running to me, I see the others in my memory and I cry. I loved them so much, they were sweet babies that I raised from little itty bittys and I'm just crushed.
I brought 3 new pullets to the flock and it's just not the same. I miss the others. I don't know if I'm cut out for this chicken business!
