Disposing of the deceased

You had to bring the religion thing into it huh?

I'm a Christian and bury my dead, human or not!

Being an avid animal lover I do not beleive in thowing them in the garbage. We have a ritual we do.

We wrap the animal in a plastic bag then we bury them 2 to 3 feet deep as we do not want anything to dig them up.

We then place a marker and or a cross over the grave.

We have a small area that we bury all our deceased pets in.

I am a beleiver that all lives either human or animal the souls go back to the maker.

 

when i have chicks in the spring, And one pass's i take post hole diggers and di a 6 inch hole. Its easy and i do it in the woods.But when i had lots of chickens poor at one time , I just tossed them into a hole and put a little dirt on them,like a mass grave.

 

Dispose of the poor little things whichever way makes you feel best about it, I say.

 

I always find a nice spot where they will not be bothered and bury them, I normally plant flowers or a bush or something on/near them also ( just to remember where they are LOL )

Cats are buried under beds of flowers, so the flowers can be moved if we move to a new house.

The hamsters we had are buried in the woods, under a cairn of stones. No markers, but also not easy for the neighbohood critters to dig up. If we lose a chicken we've already agreed to the woods cairn idea for peep burial. But luckily we've not had to do that!

 

I know this sound harsh but all of my burried dead has been dug up, even are dog who was burried at least 4ft deep. I know just walk them far away from the chickens into the woods and place them on the ground. I pray that in the chicken's death it will save another animal from hunger.
