A bunch of chickens and roosters can look like total fun and a great time to be had by everyone. But, that is only part of it. There is a great amount of joy. But, yesterday was a sad day. Two beautiful chicks disappeared in the nighttime. At around 10:00am I witnessed a 'teenage' chick get killed by the neighbor's dog. Another mother lost her only baby sometime around noon. It might have been taken by a hawk. It was there one minute...and then a half hour later, it was nowhere to be found. And tonight, I was completely saddened when this rooster didn't come in. I searched everywhere. I couldn't find any evidence of his demise. He might be hiding somewhere...but, I doubt it. Tomorrow, I will do a more thorough search. I took these pictures of him a few days ago...he was very beautiful...
