The flock hasn’t been the same since our fearless leader Blaze passed away. The preliminary necropsy report ruled out trauma as a cause of death, so we know for certain that none of the other roosters were to blame for his untimely departure. An enlarged spleen was the only abnormal finding in the post mortem exam, but the results from the tissue samples offered no definitive cause for the enlarged spleen.

I have been scoring you site for the last year as we have wanted chickens but wasn’t sure if I was up to it. Well we took the plunge yesterday and brought home come chicks. So far they seem to be active and very chirpy!
I almost lost one of my girls who was laying shell-less eggs…. I was worried sick. I feel your pain, Rachel. Hoping your daughter is taking Blaze’s passing well. :/
Very sorry for your loss. Blaze looked a lot like my Peanut. I can’t imagine my flock without him.
Best wishes.
