I'm so sorry to hear you lost your chick. You did all you could for it, and all the right things.

Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear this. You did a wonderful thing. You gave so much of yourself to get in this short time period. Thank you for having such a generous heart. Chloe got to be loved in her short life, which is more than most chickens on the planet can say. You did great.

Said well.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the kind words and the support. My husband was even sad about this loss cause he saw how hard I worked and he even grew fond of her. It's hard to see any animal suffer but seeing one so small is hard. She is in a better place. Thanks again

Awe I'm so sorry for your loss! Last summer when we raised chicks one of them didn't make it. She was the spunk of the group, chasing around the others and hopping around... They just take a turn for the worst. But she's over the rainbow bridge, a place of happiness and a place of peace. She is not dead, her heart may if stopped but if you stay still and peaceful for long enough, you'll find that she is right with you... In your own beating heart

I am deeply saddend to say that she lost her life tonight. I noticed her gasping for air so I held her during her last minutes. She made a turn for the worst quickly. I am heartbroken and even though I am questioning everything I did for her I know I did everything I could. My husband helped me burry her in the flower garden and we came up with a name for her. Chloe. She is not suffering and in a better place. I am thankful I got to give her that shot at life when most would have not. I grow emotionally attached to each of my animals. I did not even have a week with her but I spent so much time with her. I appreciate all the support from everyone who has followed her short life. I am just so tore up right now. Thank you all!

I'm so sorry! You did a wonderful job at trying to keep her alive and I'm sure her little spirit is thankful.
