I still got it going.

And now just what you've all been waiting for, a picture of the chicks' new pro guide extreme 100 MPH ultra brood pen.

And just like that, all 7 are dead.  Apparently our dachshund/min pin mix followed me in the bedroom, hid out and killed them all in less than five minutes.  She's demoted from house dog while the jury considers her ultimate fate.  I'm not much of a fan of chicken killing dogs.

  Oh geez Rick. Serious condolences from us.

It's a bummer for sure - I feel guilty for not being more careful about the dog.  But as my English friend says, "If you've got livestock, sooner or later you're gonna have dead stock."  Wish it hadn't happened but it did.

Holy smokes, went from one extreme to the other in the above 2 posts. Dang TM, that stinks. I’m at 21 days now on my eggs in the incubator. No sign of life yet. Will give them til day 24, then open and see what happened.

We'll give it another try when the local farm stores have chick days.  And be more careful then.  That pro guide extreme 100 MPH ultra brood pen is not very dog resistant.

Shoot Rick, sorry to hear that.

I have dealt with chicken eating dogs in the past, never worked out well for them.

Funny how we value the eggs and meat from a chicken more than a dog.

Chicken killers live a life of jeopardy, often shortened by their chicken killing actions.  I admit to sending more than one chicken killer to meet their maker so they can apologize and try to live a better life the next time around the cycle.

I love my dogs.  But they need to behave.  Killing chicks or chickens is not behaving.

@Terrierman sorry to hear about your chickens. That just sucks.
