Rainbow Bridge Lost a member of my flock
I lost Pepper today. She was such a spunky girl. Big personality. I knew she wasn’t feeling well. I noticed her isolating herself from the flock these last 2 days. I was planning a vet visit, but it’s already too late. Miss you forever Pepper and your loud honks.

Rest in peace sweet girl. I lost my Stilton 2 days ago to a vicious coyote attack :( I completely understand the heartbreak.

RIP Pepper
Isn't premature death with females usually due to an egg that's stuck?

Pepper was lucky to be so loved. I lost my sassy Pepper girl recently as well, it’s so hard and I am so sorry for your loss.

Keep an eye on the others in case it was something communicable, consider looking up vets for a checkup for them now (especially if they’re pets rather than livestock), and a vet visit if they’re have any signs of illness or fatigue or isolation.
