Believe it or not, that's a huge improvement. It's filling in more every day - used to be five times that size!

Very glad your chickens are all okay! So sorry about your one hen there. Glad she's recovering though, that's amazing.

I know things happens, but that petsitter should be fired. I also wanted to commend you for acknowledging that it's not the dogs' fault that they did what they did. In the heat of the moment, a lot of folks would have shot those dogs, especially out here in the country. Glad you did the responsible thing and called animal control, all the while containing the dogs until they got there. Took a lot of restraint I'm sure.

You know, it's far too rare an event that people do the right thing for strangers. I finally was able to get the Animal Control report on this event two weeks ago. I wrote a letter, complete with pics and receipt scans, to the dogs' owners and put it in their mailbox. Tonight my doorbell rang, and it was the owner, with a check for the exact amount I asked for in reimbursement. He was polite, apologetic, and an all-around nice guy. I love when stories have happy endings!

Now THAT is a great ending! Nice to see people take responsibility!

How's your hen? Fully healed?

She's all healed up and started laying eggs again over a week ago. :)

Glad Dot is healed and well, and that you got your money back!! :)
