The saddest part for me is that right before he left he made a nest for his little wife and then ushered her into it and then guarded her. Then he let me pick him up and he immediately started falling asleep while I petted him. I suddenly felt terrible.
But it was one of those situations. Earlier he was pecking and pecking at the jersey giant. And my husband said 'I have someone who will take him before we leave but you have to make up your mind right now.'
So I did :/ I've felt bad ever since wondering if I could have just kept him and the other two silkies in the little coop. And the rest in the big coop.
A couple of friends voiced their opinions and said I did the right thing but why do I feel so bad.
Ugh I never ever in my life knew I would be so attached to chickens! Even grumpy ones. If someone told me this 10 years ago I would have laughed in their face.
Anyway I appreciate your reply and thinking at least he might still be granted life is comforting. Thank you.
