Oh man Deb, I'm so sorry.
I can't even imagine how awful you felt walking up onto that scene
That had to be quite a blow for you to take after having raised them, watched them grow and put so much time and work into them and I feel so bad for you. Do not blame yourself tho, predators are ruthless opportunists. If you need more keets let me know (I'm expecting a lot of Pearls and RPs to hatch Mon or Tues)... Just pay the shipping and they are yours if you want them, I still have one more chickbox, (I'll need to get watermelon tho, lol). Hope the youngin's stay safe
So sorry you had to go thru this.
