Do you have any other chickens? Are they ok with the death of their sister?

I do not expect the loss of any friend to be without mourning. You know she had a good life. I am sorry for your loss.

It's weird, Chloe didn't really associate with my other chickens (3 rhode island reds; 1 bantam chochin rooster).
In fact, they'd pick on her...that's why I originally brought her inside my house. Literally my pet.
Sadly, my other hens are fairly aloof...although they still follow me around the yard for grub.
Chloe, on the other hand, didn't seem to be motivated purely by food...it was a honest-to-God exchange of affection...but who knows, maybe I'm making more of it than I should.
