Heartbreak Hen House
Keeping livestock is not for the faint hearted. I awoke this morning to a listless crowd, there was some passing interest in the kitchen scraps, a few clucks at a worm, but far from the normal rowdiness. I went to a clients, I had some wine, I rescued a women and child who had filled their diesel car with petrol. I then discovered, after hearing some odd sounds booming from the hen house, an upturned light sussex hen, legs in the air, straight, cold, rigid. Her final throws of life couldn’t have been longer than mere minutes before, her slowly glazing eyes losing their colour, her wattle draining of blood.
Worriedly I looked in on the others who were quiet, a strangely telling stillness to wish their feathered member goodbye. Gabby is fluffed like a ball. Elle is listless, her eyes doing their best from closing. X is gasping for air.
Calling Ms Osbaldeston-Fieldsend, a women betrothed to her flock and knowing the ways to win a viral battle or two, I quickly explained the situation whilst becoming more worried about my hens. X is now in the kitchen eating boiled eggs (as recommended by Ms O-F), though her gasping seems to be a sure sign that the reaper isn’t far away. Meanwhile Elle, Georgia, Gabby and Charlotte have been let into the garden. A kind of final plea for them to perk up, snack on some grubs, have a dust bath, do anything to make themselves feel, and be, better.
I hope that boiled egg does the trick!
I intend to keep a vigil until something happens one way or another. In the meantime, goodbye little X, you served me well and the coop won’t be the same without you 🙁
