R.I.P. Myrtle (April 2, 2006 - July 18, 2008)

It is with great sadness that I must announce the passing away of Myrtle the chicken. My blog made her an international star with lesbians and the right-to-life crowd. Myrtle tried in vain to be a setting hen. After giving her two tries to hatch eggs into little baby chicks, I had to break the news to her that Rocky was shooting blanks.
Myrtle will always be remembered for not minding getting a little dirty. While the other hens laughed at her setting obsession, Myrtle would always turn the other beek. She fought tirelessly and in vain to be a mother.
Myrtle was born on April 2, 2006. Pictured here are the baby chicks adopted from the local feed and supply store. Myrtle is one of the gold chicks shown in the picture.

E.Shrew found Myrtle dead half way under the hen house this morning. He promptly buried her under an old oak tree on the farm. If you wish, you may pay your respects to Myrtle here.

Myrtle was one of the most beautiful hens ever. My condolences.
I really feel bad to hear of your loss. I wish I could remove your pain.
I hope Rocky didn't "cluck" her to death.
But seriously-- it's a sad day. You need to get a replacement Myrtle a.s.a.p.
Chickens in heaven everywhere are clucking at her arrival.
:-( ::hug::
What??? You're not gonna fry her? Oh wait, I guess she was already dead...Can't cook them unless you slaughter them yourself.
awww...
I hope they find the right hen to play Myrtle in the forthcoming movie, "Myrtle!"
What's for dinner!
CHICKEN!!
Rest in peace, Myrtle! May you be surrounded in heaven with baby chicks.
Alas, the only animal on the farm that loved cock more than you do.
RIP, Myrtle!

Is fowl play suspected or was it natural causes?
So sorry to hear of Myrtle!
