Stroke or similar maybe.

 

I must put some more pieds down to breed I miss seeing the little fellas!!

I am so sorry you lost your hen

It's horrible when they go suddenly like that

Yes....I was pretty upset about losing that hen

 

Here are the two white pieds of theirs

 

How many days old are those chicks Kaz? Thay are so cute. I see the black ring isn't looking so black at the moment

I am not sure...I will have to check their records

Sad to lose such a great mother.

hugs Kaz, I know you take all your loss very personal :raincloud:, I am sure those babies will be okay and they will flourish under your guidance.

Thanks Elly :raincloud: There are quite a few of these chicks spread over 3 or 4 nests. They are doing well. She was an amazing mother and a lovely girl...I will miss her.

wow 10 and 12 days okay... I never realised just hows small they were when you ring them... (which is generally around 6 days yeah?)

Yes...about that age

Poor little sweetie, sorry to hear it Kaz.

Fortunately you have some beautiful offspring though. I look forward to watching them thrive!

Here is some of the chicks from this pair in a foster nest

 

 

 

 

there is more in other nestboxes

Merlin approves and says they are gorgeous as he sits on my shoulder and cuddles next to my hair saying sweet baby, I should have taught him sweet girl instead so it sounds like he is talking to me not himself and so concieted.

I would love to see that in person..... maybe one day I will.

I love your babies!
