I took her to the vet and she had an egg impaction and there was nothing the vet could do. Please know your sweet hen was so lucky to have such a wonderful, loving and caring shepherd as you. She felt the dirt under her feet and the sun on her back and that is so much more than can be said for so many other chickens. Know that you're in my thoughts.<br />Carolinetwbcountrygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01000068905141858247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8326134256144421366.post-64354325562739377212011-09-10T16:59:43.107-07:002011-09-10T16:59:43.107-07:00We had chickens for many years.

She was still a friend. It seems late summer is always so hard on the chickens, so many die this time of year.<br />At least you were their with her, and from the way it sounds she might have become egg bound. And with chickens you rarely can do anything. <br />KitAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8326134256144421366.post-79812132604702316952011-09-08T17:25:50.868-07:002011-09-08T17:25:50.868-07:00I am so sorry.

At least you were able to be there with her at the end.Kay S.noreply@blogger.com
