Some Sad News

With a few tears in my eyes the Ex Batt Girls have some sad news to tell you.

Unfortunately last night one of the green chickens nicknamed Little Bear died during the night.



Little bear was nicknamed this because she had a bright red bare bum and as one of the blue chickens was already named Derriaire we called her bear because she was so bare. This soon became little bear as she was one of the smallest chicken in the green group.

Even tho she was only with us for such a short time her last month was a happy one and she like the others has made such a difference around here.



When Little Bear was let out with the other to roam free into the garden, she loved to go and stand under the raspberry bushes in the shade. Where she would lay here out the way from the others squabbles usually with a rotten potatoe which she would find in the garden, it was one of her favourite foods. Once she was out she never wanted to go back into her house always hiding under the raspberry bushes and always the last to go back inside.

She was buried today in the garden close to her favourite spot with some rotten potatoes one of her favourite food.

She will be greatly missed by all.
