Lost a Swedish yesterday. I'm not sure how,she got in the trough (it's too high for them to do much more than reach up to shrink over the wall) or what happened afterwards (not a single mark on her). I have to watch them come out today to see who exactly it was, but I think it was the nice bibbed one that wasn't named.

Yeah, I'm still pretty bummed about it. I have no idea what could have happened, honestly. There was a cinder block in there so that the chickens can get out if they fall in, and I couldn't find any signs that my male had bred and drowned her, it wasn't chilly, so she shouldn't have gotten too cold. I really just don't know apart from it having been something like a heart attack or something else just sudden internally

Looks like it was Doula. The remaining blue isn't nearly as blocky as she was, so I'm really thinking it was something internal now. I'd been concerned she might have been laying internally, just because of how large her pouch was.

I'm sorry Jacin.

Last week I lost my 11 yr old Buff Orp.
Mama Bird was the last member of my very first group of birds. I hated loosing her.
She was never sick, always a gentle soul and a great broody.

Got a lot planted. Mostly annuals, but some over grown tomatoes and some melons and cucumber/gherkins. And the 6 packs that Brother picked out (a lettuce/cabbage and a cauliflower, so that will be interesting to say the least).

Need more totes though, I have 1 left and need at least another 4 or 5
