A SAD DAY

Today we lost "Dolly" the Hen, remember the one that had all her tail feathers pecked out, well she managed to grow more but was never a really healthy hen even though i tried everything i could. 2 days ago i noticed she was very fluffed up and wasnt sure if it was the very cold weather we were having, anyway yesterday she was just standing on the coup floor all on her owwn fluffed up and didnt even flinch when i picked her up, she just kept shutting her eyes, so i put her in the dog crate i have with some hay and food and brought her in home, hoping the warm would help her, but sadley it didnt and today she died :(

Sorry to hear about poor Dolly. I used to have lots of Black Rocks and Warrens, and a few other breeds, had 36 at one time. It's always so hard when they are sick, at least you didn't have to make the awful decision to put her to sleep, which happened to me many times. Will try and look at your blog often, just found it through Tricia's Tales.

My Wildlife Garden

I have been trying to create my own wildlife garden, I only have a very small garden but have managed to fit 4 small ponds in to it (2 which have pumps and 2 without, they include frogs, newts and 3 goldfish), 12 bird boxes, 2 lots of feeding stations and some flower beds. I also have just acquired an allotment which is on my other blog, link below. I started this project in 2007 but only started bloggin it in 2008. I hope you enjoy my creation.
