My Punky's Gone

[meetthebubus]

3 yrs old this coming May, top of the pecking order was a good leader loved by her small family of orpingtons they rallied around her urging her on these last few days but she didn't make it and passed this evening

She was independent, strong, kind to her flock when she was in her prime she had a floppy crest and layed eggs with a calcium swirl as her egg sig

I'm glad she's no longer suffering and she had a good life here, she was loved

Here's a vid I did a couple days ago nursing her giving her vitamin water

Sweet Miss Punky. Your lovely tribute to her made me cry, I can tell she was a very special soul and you obviously loved her very much. I know she felt your love every day and was thankful for the care and good life you gave her. Rest In Peace little Punky.

So sorry for your loss! Any pics of the spiral eggs?

If you still have an egg from her, you can pierce a hole in each end with a needle to drain the insides and keep the shell.
