Little - RIP
posted by Chris at 14:18
Sad to say that Little has gone to great chicken coop.
Just before Christmas she went to the vet as she was very listless, however she seemed to recover from that. Yesterday, just before I took The Beasts out, I gave the girls their afternoon treats and noticed Little was missing; I found her hunched up in the coop. I took her indoors and gave her water and yoghurt, but sadly on returning from our walk she had died.
Little when she arrived
Little was named because she was the smallest of the bunch and, as you can see, did not have too many feathers; she was also at the bottom of the pecking order and went out of her way to avoid everyone else.
Little - a recent picture
But she turned into a beautiful golden coloured lady with dapples on her neck and became immeasurably more confident in herself and hung around with the others, Babs, Bunty, Ginger and Penny.
I'm glad she had 10 months of freedom.
