RIP Cleo.

I'm so sorry to hear about Cleo, Carrie. Thank you for the photo – she was a lovely hen.

Sometimes chickens do just suddenly die, and it's such a shock when they seem to have been perfectly healthy one minute and they're gone the next.

Fly high, Cleo. You are much missed.

Little Red Hen

by Randy and Debbie Barnette
(Murfreesboro, TN)

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.

RIP Little Red Hen
by: Cath

Sending much love and thoughts to you, Randy and Debbie, on the loss of your little Red hen. She was lucky to have been rescued from being the only chick left in the bin.

She sounds like she was quite the character, and she will leave a hole in your flock.

But while she was with you, she lived her best life and brought you smiles.

RIP, Little Red Hen. You are very much missed.

In memory of my beautiful Rusty!

by Charlene Sherry
(Canton, Ohio)

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.

Thinking of you.
by: Cath

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your lovely Rusty, Charlene Sherry. She was such a handsome hen! I'm also sad to hear you lost other chickens to a dog. It's always hard to lose any of our flock.

All we can do is to remember that, while they are with us, our chickens lead a good life, full of love and care.

RIP Red (Rusty). You were a very lovely chicken, and you were very much loved.

My hen

by Mian Usman
(Lahore, Pakistan.)

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.

Sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss, Mian Usman. It's so sad when one of our chickens dies, especially when there's no reason for it.

Thank you also for your condolences on my loss. It's heartbreaking to lose any of our flock.

I hope you are able to remember your hen and know that you gave her the best possible life while she was with you.

Fly high, little hen. You were much loved.
