Interduce Myself

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!

Hi, do your brahma and silkies get along? And how old are your silkies? Just curious..)
 
Howdy, :frow and Welcome to Backyard Chickens.

Happy :ya to have you here with us. Enjoy your time here at BYC!

It hurts to dispatch any of God's creatures but it hurts more if they get taken out because you didn't provide the appropriate security/ protection.

Thanks for joining our community! :celebrate
