She really was a pretty girl. So sorry.One of my OEGH went to the Rainbow bridge yesterday. No trauma. or injury. They are in their winter housing, so not weather related ether.
Just a peaceful exit.,,, She was 6 years old.
Now my flock is down to 7 hens.

... I look at the positive. She had 6 years of a comfortable loving life 
. Now I must get the frozen ground broken to bury her. I always return my pets to earth.
You could always freeze her and then wait until spring to bury her. I would think it near impossible to get through the ground right now. We did this once with our kitty. It was hard to do that, but we didn't have much choice.Thank you,,,, to everyone for your kind thoughts.
We've been in similar situations. The body of our 5' iguana could not be buried in February. We had some freeze thaw cycles and worried how long it would take to have her funeral. We bought a grill and had a cremation service. (a campfire could also work) That way we could save the ashes and wait until spring.Thank you,,,, to everyone for your kind thoughts.
