One of my girls injured her Leg and was not eating...
She was suffering for over a week as we waited and hoped for any sign of recovery.
Today I put her down...
So, because I like to document EVERYTHING...
I took picture of the everything, except the deed itself...
I believe that we should never let even sad events go down, without thinking 1st how to get some value out of the situation.
I am a minister, and one of my ministries is that I research and use applied archeaology to restore Biblical Artifacts and Teach lesson about.
I decided to put her down via bronze biblical Davidic Great Axe.
I created and own the only fully restored one in the world.
so, my poor girl made history today as the first chicken to die biblically.
The first animal to do so to this kind of axe in 2800 years.
To keep her body from running about and to ease my mind from having to see the potential gore,
I set up this kind of makeshift "quick burial" gallows.
I chose her final resting place to be between all of our black berry bushes.
Again, If you have to put one of your suffering chickens down,
you might as well get humongus black berry bushes out of the deal.
I held her up side down until she finally passed out.
Then I let her body down into the hole and held her head wih her neck over the board.
The bronze axe worked FLAWLESSLY... and quick.
she fell into the hole with her head fallowing a second later.
I quicky dumped the soil in on her body before her body could start going....much..
It was sad... I did not like it, at all...
But her suffering is now over...
