Tragedy hits flock!

Today we mourn the loss of two little chicken.
It was the first day back to school. (bus driving is my day job)
When we got home we noticed that Cotie (the dog) was not under our feet or right there ready to clean up anything that Jane dropped on the floor.   Joe remembered that Jane had opened the back door just a few minutes before.  Mike went out into the garage and there was Cotie, two dead chicks and five others scattered all over the place.  We will surly miss Daisy (Light Brahma)  and the Black Copper Maran that Cotie just couldn't resist. What do you expect from a bird dog. Needless to say they have been moved into a very secure home. Mike and Joe were building them a great new coop. They were just putting the finishing touches on and if we would have move them out just one day earlier they all would have been safe. Hind sight is 20/20.  Due to the sensitivity of the issue there will be no photos to go with this post.
