Its impossible for me not to make pets out of them amd every other living creature.

I`m the same way Janie! Pat would be too even though she said she would not! I have to love an animal I have raised and nurtured and cared for! I was able to give my little friend an extra year of a pretty good life she hadn`t laid an egg for at least a year. Over a year ago she had a bad prolapse that I was able to help her through. She was pretty good until the last week or so. Glad she isn`t suffering any longer...

I'm so sorry, Barry. They pay a price for being such heavy producers. Being a byc member gives you the opportunity to educate others and I see that you do that often in the introductory forum. Thank you.
I hate that you're having so much heartbreak tho

Thanks Janie! They certainly do pay the ultimate price. Thanks for noticing, I really do try to let people know that those eggs they typically lay every day come with a heavy price to pay! Much better off with heritage breeds. We still have two more ISA Browns, one still laying the other has bouts of sickness, she will likely be next. Keeping chickens is wonderful I don`t even mind the extra work but the heartbreak we could all do without!

I agree with you and Barry...I get attached to everything. It's hard when one is lost.

I'm falling behind with my St. Pat's jokes, time for another!
