We have suffered a great loss on the farm...

Today we mourn the death of dear chicken friend, Bater. She was found last night dead after falling in our swimming pool. She has no problem swimming, the water was just too cold and chickens don't do well when they are wet and cold. She was one of our favorite chickens, and would always greet us at the door when we came to feed them. Poor little Bater will be missed....it's a good thing my sweet husband bought me so many chickens to keep me company! I still have 11 more to play with....they just won't be playing outside without me anymore...

this is a picture of Bater as a baby helping ryan do some electrical work :) What a GREAT chicken!!
