Little Red was a red sex-link chicken. We got her from our local TSC store one day when we were looking for chicks.
At the store, they separate the chicks by breed. All of the other chicks in her tub had been purchased except for her. I couldn’t bear her being left alone by herself, so she goes home with us and our other baby chicks.
The funniest thing about her was her determination to get to the chicken feed first before any of the other chickens. She got many showers of chicken feed because she would fly up and bump your hand causing you to spill it. She loved to fly up and eat directly out of the tub.
Our silly girl will be sorely missed.

Her name was Red and sometimes I called her Rusty, as her coloring was a rusty color. But Red came from being a Rhode Island Red, and she was beautiful!!
I am new to having chickens. My first loss was when 2 dogs got into the coop and killed all 3 White leghorns. That left me with one chicken, a black copper Marans. She was devastated, so I went to the store and bought two chickens that were just a week younger than my black copper Marans.
I got a Rhode Island Red and a white Cochin. Red made friends quite quickly with the Black Marans. She was new to the coop but they made friends quickly. Never a fight or any quarrelling.

I read your sad story. I'm very sad about your loss.
Yesterday my hen also sudden died. I was at my parents. It was very shocking and sad. She was fully healthy and fine. She was just 8 months old. 😥.
Yesterday morning she was fully healthy and okay, eating and drinking normally. At 1 pm she entered the room for laying an egg. But at 5:15 I saw she was dead.
