A Blue day

Saturday was an emotional day for us as we said goodbye to our little Blue. Poor thing has always, in the 7 months that we've had her, been sickly, and has been laying softies for a couple of months. She hadn't eaten for days so we took her to the vet and he confirmed what we thought - egg peritonitis. It's fatal 99% of the time and although she looked perky we decided it would be cruel to keep her alive just for our benefit so the very nice vet let us say goodbye and off she went. We know we did the right thing but still sad to see her go - we always love the under-chicken and she was certainly that!
