sad story
my family owns a number of chickens, who roam freely around the yard. We even had a rooster. The hens would lay eggs in the yard and our dogs would find them and eat them. so the hens started laying eggs underneath our garden shed. Last summer one hen layed and egg and incubated it until it finally hatched. So the baby chick grew up and was happy. Then this last winter our hen house colasped under all the snow and our rooster died. But the baby and mama suvived. Then with the arrival of spring came a new puppy. The puppy had not learned to leave the chickens alone, like the other dogs and when she got big she attack them. The mother survived but the baby did not. Recently we noticed that we were short a chicken, it did not appear in the next few days so we began to look for it. We started under the garden shed. The hen had layed a large number of egges under the shed and had been incubating them. It was there, incubateing the eggs that would never hatch due to a lack of a rooster, the hen had died. SHe had not left her post attop the eggs to eat or drink and so the starved to death trying to replace her lost baby.
