Our darling Woody has finally given up. We knew she wasn't looking good, and although a week of antibiotics helped, I think that old age got the better of her. Late last week she laid a lash, which is apparently common in ex-batts and older girls. From then on she was very subdued, although still eating a bit.
So Salisbury is on her own, which I don't think she'll mind too much, with the neighbours chooks through the garden fence. But hopefully we'll get some more ex-batts in September and before then we might acquire a couple of the neighbours hybrids which are not yet at point of lay, so young girls for us!
