Hatching
Maybe was a cheeky chook that would sneak into my kitchen and steal the cat food, She would get under foot when I was gardening or run to the chick starter bin when I was refilling the quail feeding tray. I miss her every day as the other surviving two chooks are too busy scratching the lawn clippings. She ate well and drank from the clean trough. Then one day she looked a bit sad this lasted about 2 days she even sat under the Bogainvillea to get out of the rain so we put her into a separated coup. Sadly in the morning I found that she had bled to death from her rare end. Yet there had been no blood in her stools. On reading up I wondered if she had ovarian Cancer. She was an old rescue Battery hen the last of five from that farm
