I'm so glad that there's others that get attached to their farm animals also.

Of course!!
I have a lot of respect for people who can detach themselves from "production" animals, but I showed market swine one year in high school and I swore never again. I'm just a big ol softy and love all my animals!!

Sorry to hear. Sometimes we do what we can but nature has other plans. I know it's late now but I wish I had thought to ask if you had noticed if she were going to the bathroom. The good side of raising a flock is when the miracles do happen and the chick you thought never had a chance proves you wrong. Earlier this year my wife put a chick in a shoe box for me to take and bury. She was not showing a hint of breathing, limp and unresponsive to anything. When I came home I went out to the brood house to get the box and the little chick was up in the box running around like nothing ever happened. She is still doing quite well. We named her zombie btw.
