Interduce Myself

Welcome to BYC. Thank you for taking care of the rescues - they need someone on their side. Settle in and enjoy our community here - we all love to chat about chickens (and ducks, geese, guineas!).

Hello Matthew! Welcome to BYC! Sounds like you have a nice flock! I think it is pretty safe to say most of us love our birds as you do! We have 23 and I love each and every one of them! I wouldn`t beat myself up to much over having to kill the skunk... I do not like killing animals either but sometimes it has to be done. I feel as you do every time, but I know I did the right thing. I do not take ending a wild animal`s life lightly! It is human to feel like you do! Compassion is part of being a good human being!
