Thank you, @Aliciahess @NotAFarm @Amberjem @Alaskan
for all the kind words, feelings and thoughts...

Just to let you know, the JG pecked his neck and it broke his trachea, no blood but cartilage was broke thru inside his throat..
Nothing I coulda done, unfortunately...
Thank you, NAF, for the diagram, helps to know their weaknesses...
Think this was just one of those times where everything went wrong...

Little girl is SUPER EXCITED

She and DH are going on a date tomorrow night. They have a father- daughter dance to attend

So cool!

I bet they have a great time and she'll remember it forever!

Well, the little gremlin didn't make it...

Jim wants to try black meat, so guess I gotta process...

supposedly the skull on a silkie is actually kinda defective.... if they get pecked on just the right spot it can easily kill them

The vaulted skull that Silkies (and some other breeds) have is more susceptible to injury. Think newborn baby skull that is still in "pieces" and not a single bone. The hen must have hit him just the right/wrong place.

Here is a diagram of the difference in a vaulted vs regular chicken skull:

I can see it now.... Helmets for silkeys....
