This has been an interesting dialog. On my post last night in Emergencies, I spoke of the need to act quickly. as she had a bleeding prolapse. When I took her from the coop to isolate her the others started their protest. My thought is ... partly because she is ALWAYS first to roost and partly because I took her in front of them at nightfall. I surely appreciate all the support and insights. I learn so much on BYC. Maybe some of my thoughts were projection. As for the naysayers... ,I grew up on a small ranch and live on a Percheron horse ranch. We have a dear old coot for a landlord. He is defiantly of the mind that the strong survive and let the week die. He and my dad have taught me alot of how the world of nature turns. The guy even let a colt die because it couldn't nurse as the colt had a parrot mouth.I saw that mother when-nee(sp) for days. It was heart breaking. I say this to illustrate that I am aware of the different views< and can appreciate all. That's what makes this world so amazing. But I'm glad I'm on this side if the debate.
Thanks to all who were helpful in OUR loss. The girls got some warmed Turkey Soup that I was going to freeze, Homemade of course.
