So this Thanksgiving wasn't a good one for us. My cousin brought over his dog, who has been to our house before, but this time he left her alone in the backyard and she killed 6 of our 7 chickens. The only one we have left is Rose. We are upset about this, but we know he didn't do it on purpose. We had been so very careful with our chickens. They were more than just our egg supply. We enjoy spending time watching them, talking to them, holding them. RIP Dorthy, Blanche, Apple, Henrietta, Snow and Ice.
So we went out on Saturday and purchased 8 new baby chicks. I will be posting a new post with pictures later and will be updating the posts as they grow. They are about 10 days to 2 weeks old at the moment so it will be about 6 months before we start getting eggs again.
Overall, it was a very sad weekend.
