Our Rhode Island Red chook of eight years was PTS last night, she was verly poorly and hobbling so it was the best thing for her.
She was such a character, incredibly nosey and loved being pick up for cuddles and being fussed over.. Unlike out other skittish girl. 
RIP Miss P

Thank you ll for your support, it really does make a difference. *hugs*
Her companion is getting a loaned friend in a couple of days, my other half is loning us one of his ex-batts for a spell to stop her feeling blue! |

Fly free Mrs P. Chickens are wonderful and it sounds like she lived a wonderful life with you. Hope her companion copes without her. |

Thank you, folks.
Keep having a bit of a wibble, eight years is a lot of love spent on them! It was all for the best though.

Thank you both.
I will admit, when we went down to the vet with her I was resigned and steeled that he was going to put her to sleep but I still cried a little when he actually said it! Yes though, it is all part and parcel of owning animals, with the happy days there eventually comes the sad and I am glad that we made it a kinder passing for her in the end! |

oh a sad day for you too :-( just explained to my little lad that having animals is wonderful but we do have to be prepared for the sad days - just as long as we do the best we can for them. have to say Miss P looked one happy chicken :-) |
