Clara has not been herself since Monday, she was not getting around well, she would scoot herself around, she could not stand up very good. I would put food and water by her and she would eat and drink. She stayed on the ground all the time. Well this morning when I gave her her food, Stella got territorial over the food and was actually pecking on Clara's comb and I was like no way, she could not even defend herself. So I put her in a pen by herself with her food and water, but she passed away by the end of the day. She was the ruler of the roost and a tough old broad and she died the same way, I think she was determined not to give up till she had to.
Thanks for being such a good girl Clara, you were loved and we will miss you.
Have an awesome Friday and thanks for stopping in.
Booohooo sorry to hear this Diana!!! 🙁
awww, I'm sorry about Clara…they are like your pets and hard to lose them, especially when you raise them….
So very sorry Di. Hugs to you.
Di, I am so very sorry for you upon learning of Clara's death. Here is hoping there is a chick heaven with lots of bug s, seed, and watermelon!
Rest in peace Clara. It was fun to hear about her antics. I know she was loved.
It is always sad to lose a pet 🙁
Yesterday I sent a note asking about the chickens, so sorry to hear of Clara's passing, she was a good chick.
Thank you for sharing Clara, and all the girls, with us since you took them in to your heart. The girls were more than 'just chickens' to you so I know you'll miss her and mourn her loss.
I'm so sorry! I know how hard it is to lose our furry and feathered friends. They really become a part of the family. Take care and know that we are thinking of you.

Hugs! 🙁
So sorry to hear..sending a big hug.
I'll miss Clara's funny doing's.
We will miss you to Clara, R.I.P
You will have to get more chickies.
Di, I am so sorry to hear about Clara! I guess chickens don't live as long as our dogs and cats do, so you have to say goodbye much more often with them. That would just about do me in.
Sending big hugs, Penny
Poor little Clara. I just love little creatures.
So sad about Clara. Wish it wasn't so hard to lose your beloved chicks.
Hugs with love, T
Sorry to hear about your beautiful Clara.
I don't know how long chickens live. I do know how hard it is to lose a loved and cherished pet friend. You are in my thoughts today, and I hope you know how much you mean to all of us. (Even if we only know you in the virtual world.) {{hugs}}
Di, thinking of you and the loss of Clara. I'm so sorry to hear. I'm with Penny, having to say goodbye more often with shorter life-spans would do me in too.
Sending hugs!
Ah, I was sorry to hear about Clara. That's sad, I wanted to meet her.
Will you be getting some more girls to replace her?
sending you big hugs sister dear.
love you
Jax
