Heartbroken, need advice

[Redguitar77]

I’m angry at myself. I should have put a lock on the gate that separates their area to range and the rest of my yard. Thank you for easing my worries about the chicks - they have lots of places to hide.

So sorry for your loss

Terrible...Sorry that happened..I hope the little Child did not go home feeling traumatized either.
Awful situation.
Yes, if the Chicks have been in with the Flock they are old enough to be self sufficient. Mommas usually wean them at that age..

Thank you, I think she was ok - she was so little that I don't think she 'got it'. The chicks are roosting with the others now. Thankfully it seems that they will all be just fine.

That's great news...I felt so bad for everyone involved.. especially the little kid..Glad she was too small to understand..

It's so awful when something just happens in an instant - I've just been replaying it all over and over wishing I could go back and change those seconds. Such a wonderful, trusting bird. She is greatly missed. Thank you all sincerely for your words and advice.
