2 brown, 2 green.

leghorn died. I need to build a fire to dispose of her, short term she's going in double trash bag in freezer.

The rest of the flock is thriving. I'm not going to do a necropsy of any sort on her, don't see the point.

I'm trying to figure out if it was 2002 or 2003 that Brooke brought in the first chicks.

I'm thinking 2002, she got chicks while Cody and Kami were in Australia after Cody's radiation therapy... Hmm, were there chickens here when Kami came back with us in August 2002? I've got to say no, that chicken care wasn't a concern when traveling back then. so the dead leghorn is a little under 5 years old.
