My hen died this evening around 6 pm. I never could get her to eat more than a bite here and there for the last few weeks. Late last week she was at the point where she couldn't even stand anymore. She scooted around on the floor when she wanted to move. I took her outside everyday and laid in a spot in the yard where I could see her at all times and knew she wouldn't move from that spot until I picked her up again. I took her outside this afternoon and laid her on my lap so she could get some fresh air one last time. When a flock of blackbirds flew over head, she opened her eyes and looked around a bit then went back to sleep. She slept most of the day.
I tried to do a necropsy on her but I didn't get passed opening her up. My dh and I buried her out behind the shop with the others.
