Jennifer's Lost

There was another death. Its very puzzeling. I checked the chicks around 9:20pm (during commercial break for Top Chef) and stay for about 5 minutes. They were all doing well, the little ones would run into the 'safe house' when chased, all looked perky; except the small one that looks lost that I've been giving vita-water to today.

I checked back in at 10:15pm and one was dying; just lying, not moving, not quite stiff, barely breathing. It wasn't one of the little ones, just a regular one, but an original. It quit breathing in a few minutes. What happened? Maybe a run-in with one of the bigger ones. Maybe on my way out the door hit it (although the chicks stay away from me, so not likely). Anyway, we're to 16 original chicks.

I'm soo bereft. I'm sure that it was my favorite chick... Will you bring me in a meal-- with cinnamon rolls?
