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.

Losing one of our flock is always hard. Some people may not understand but those of us that have chickens do. I hope your flock settles down soon to it’s new pecking order.
Oh my I’m heartbroken to hear about Blaze’s passing. I adored following the adventures of him & sweet Rachel. Sending hugs to you. How is Rachel taking it?
I think Grandpa’s Feeder would also keep the wild birds from coming into the coop when the doors are open and eating up all that spilled food and exposing my chickens to their diseases.
I am so sorry to hear about the Blaze. I would love to have a grandpa feeder
Rats I haven’t won…..would really really like to try out one of these feeders !
