Last Hen
A couple months ago dogs got into my chicken pen and what a masacre occured.  I now have 5 poultry left. Lenny my genuea, the two young peahens that were hatched here and two hens.  You'll have to click on the picture to get a good look but this young little hen is from my crock pot chicks.  She is laying me a nice brown egg a day.  The other hen is an old hen who I have had for at least 3 years. She doesn't lay much so she doesn't count except for the company.  I'm getting enough eggs for me but no eggs to sell as I had hoped.  The cost of all the chickens and peafowel killed was about $450.  I doubt that I will ever be repaid, not even an apology even though I recognized the dogs and identified them.  I keep a very close eye on these and the chicken pen looks like a prison at night with metal bed frames tied over the doors.  I was very sad for quite awhile.
