Hello!

Hello, Sandra, welcome to Backyard Chickens! Congratulations for becoming part of the flock!

I'm sorry to hear about all of your previous losses. I am no expert when it comes to sicknesses but it sounds like your one chicken had a respiratory issue. It was definitely wise to have her culled, if the disease was contagious it would have likely spread and would of affected the entire flock.

Hi! I also want to say I'm sorry for your losses. I've been fortunate so far to only lose one but it was hard. You tend to go over and over what happened. But you did the right thing.

In other ways our lives are similar. We moved from packed in suburban southern Cali to Dominoes doesn't even deliver out here. I love it here. Wish we could have done it younger. We also have horses and today brought home bobwhites. As you know it's a lot of work! But crazy fun, too.

Btw, I have four dogs. One has no brain yet. The others are cantankerous old Toy Fox Terriers.
