I had an EE with a gimpy leg. Something went wrong during incubation I guess. Anyway, at first the rest of my flock didnt seem to care, but when I started letting the girls out as the snow was melting they really amped up there cruelty. I had to separate her twice to heal, and the thrid time they almost removed a leg. Poor thing couldnt stand up anymore. I decided it was in her and the flocks best interest to cull her. I didnt think it would bother me, as I am an avid hunter and what not, but I have a nasty feeling about having to cull a poor defenseless chicken like that. Did I do the right thing or was I too quick to react?
