Thank you all for the kind words and thoughts. I'm glad she isn't suffering anymore. It's always the favorites that have to go soon, it seems.

Hatch update: Looks like half of the eggs in the incubator died, but I still have a couple that are alive. I had given three eggs to a broody a few days ago, as she's been sitting on duds. She abandoned them, I gave them to a hen with chicks, another hen came in and kicked them out of the nest and cracked to eggs. Went to check those this morning and found one broken egg with a live, cold chick shrink wrapped inside. Grabbed that egg, moistened it and stuck it in the bator. One other egg was alive and had pipped internally; I could feel it beating against the shell kind of frantically. Knocked a tiny hole into the big end where the air sac was and put it in the bator, as well. I'm hoping I saved these chicks.
