On November 10th we lost Lilly our light brahma and head honcho. she had a heart infection and succumb to heart failure. It was a tragic day for the household because she was such a special girl. She was our growling chicken. We miss her terribly.
Then on the 25th we lost Fancy, one of our little Salmon Faverolles. She was attacked by the other girls and lost all of her tail feathers. Then 2 days later when she back into the coop, they attacked her again a day later. This time she was hurt badly and an air sac was ruptured so she passed during the night.
Meanwhile, everyone is doing well. We will see how the winter goes and keeping it warm enough inside for them with only 2 heat lamps.
