owning livestock is beautiful.
but it’s also brutal.

people show the good parts..
the babies, the first steps, the magic.

but not the part where you walk into the barn
and know something’s wrong.

the panic.
the helplessness.
the quiet after.

because we don’t just “have animals.”
we know them. we love them.

and when we lose one… it wrecks you.

you still cry in the stall.
you still carry the guilt.
you still bury them yourself and whisper “i’m sorry” even when you did everything you could.

this life is real.
and it hurts.. because you loved them.

A flock is a bonded family. Don't rehome the hens without their rooster. Not only is it CRUEL, but it is usually a death sentence for the rooster. It is easier to find him a home with a flock than on his own. If you have a mean or aggressive rooster, try to rehome him or do some proven methods. (from the Bird Network)
