Well, one of my daughters bobwhite quail died yesterday. It was the whole 2 weeks of daily high temps below 25 degrees, and yes, I sealed their coop and have a heat lamp going.
Granted, my kiddo had a rough morning, but she surprised me a little. I couldn't dig a hole to bury the little guy, due to the frozen ground. So, I told her "you have 2 options. You can bury him in the garbage can, or throw him in the bushes behind our house."
Her response was, "Not the garbage dad! Give him back to nature!" Granted she was crying the whole time.
So, too end the suckey story, my awesome girl is kinda' a hippy girl deep down.
Awe, I am blessed.
There can be worse things right?
