I am so sad to tell everyone that Blue Mesa, my Forbes cock, died this am. Probably from his injury yesterday.

His mate is so sad and looking for him and calling for him. I feel sorry for her right now. I pray he is flying and happy in Pet Heaven!

How awful! So sorry for the sudden unexpected loss. You really had no way of predicting such a freak accident-occurrence. Very strange.
