Fluffer did not come to the coop tonight. DH just found her in the middle of the field.

She spent most of the day happily chasing bugs as I watched her through the window every chance I got. I know that her last day was a happy one. She leaves behind 7 little chicken nuggets who are currently cuddling to Frieda and Hilda.

Rest in peace dear sweet Miss Flufferbottom. You will be missed.

I am so sorry.

I have loved your stories and photos about her, it was plain to see that you cared for her.

:hugs

Enjoy her babies, they were a wonderful gift for her to leave for you.

Thank you everyone. When I decided to get chickens, DH looked at me and said "They're all yours and you're gonna take care of them" He said this because he has always had a minor fear of birds. But the chickens endeared themselves to him and suddenly they became "his girls". Fluffer was DH's "chicken dog". They were a team and he loved her very much. It was so hard to see this man that I love so much crumble over the loss of his precious hen. DH rarely cries but Fluffer's death took him to his knees. It amazes me sometimes how attached you can become to an animal.
