A cluck-tastically heartbreaking day as we say goodbye to Lulu and Olive

Today we're mourning Lulu and Olive, two feathered friends taken far too soon by loose dogs in the backyard. Lulu was the last of our OG chickens, a puffy-cheeked sweetheart who loved being held and laid pretty pink eggs with a trumpet-like voice. And Olive? That sassy Barred Rock came to us as a bully and never gave up her top spot in the pecking order. She'd peck you in the backside if you looked away during egg collection, but she was also a fierce protector. She even won Best in Show at our 4H Fair. Our other chickens are battered but safe, thankfully, though we've got a gaping hole in our hearts.
