RIP My sweet little Angel!

[critter crazy]

Today I found my little girl angel, had passed awy. Angel was one of the chicks I hatched in my incubator this past March. I named her angel, cause she was a special little girl, she was born with a cross beak. Because of her crossed beak, she was always a bit behind everyone else, and a little on the smaller side. But she was such a sweety, we had a very special bond since day one, as I had to help her eat at first, till she figured out how to do it all on her own. She couldnt peck at food, like all the other chickens, cause her beak didnt close properly, she had to scoop up food into the lower portion of her beak, and tilt her head back to eat. We never expected her to make it past a few days, but she managed to make it for 7 months! she was such a little fighter. Unfortunately she gave up this fight this morning! I am very sad to see her go, but know that she is perfect at the Rainbow Bridge, and Running around with all the other birds! RIP My little angel!:(
