This chicken is not dead

[janiedoe]

I'm so happy there is a thread for this. I have one chick that looks like she was hit by a truck when she's sleeping. One wing off to the side, leg kicked out, and her head sideways. She jumps up before i can get a pic, but I'll keep trying.

Looking forward to the picture!

These girls were so dead looking the rooster came over to check on them

Then he had to call in some backup for a second opinion

Then they had to confer a bit together before decided the next step

They decided to start stepping on the girls to see if they were really gone or not.

Hilarious!

Great photo story.

1sr dust bath for these babies. Happy, healthy 7-10 days old chicks, but they look like a little puddle of death here!

I can’t even tell what part of the chick I’m looking at

The little girls (& guys) had this area to themselves today. They dug some nice sized holes.

Ah, new grave sites

Ah, new grave sites

Exactly what I thought. Originally I typed "digging their own graves" but I thought that was a little dark.

The looks of jealousy from the other side are great!

Those silly girls. They have a nice spot on the other side but they only want to chase the banty girls away and take their spots.

You know what they say, the dirt is always dustier on the other side of the fence!
