Thanks all for the encouraging words. Unfortunately Jumper is gone this morning, She was breathing a bit heavily yesterday afternoon and I figured it wouldn't be long. My son spent some time with her petting her head. She was still breathing when we went to bed last night, but this morning she was gone. We had our funeral for her and buried her in a box. It was hard for my son, he has had this chicken for almost 6 years, since he was 10 or 11 (he's now 16), so it's not easy to loose her.

This picture is when Jumper was about a few months old.
