This Henrietta with my granddaughter a few years ago,Henrietta died last night she had not been feeling well for a few days and was getting weaker not sure what was wrong with her,I don`t know if she might have had a broken egg inside her although she had not laid an egg for a long time she was older.She was hatched out in at my granddaugters school a few years back.She was out of a golden comet and a black sexlink.The kids really liked her and will feel bad.I feel bad,I buried her in the field this morning.DH said he would move the manure pile over on top of her grave so the wild animals don`t dig her up.The granddaughter in the picture made me promise not to process her this fall when I did the other old hens so I know she will feel really bad.Solme chickens are just special to you for whatever reason.
