Re: Have you ever accidentally killed an animal?

[(Anonymous)]

I keep chickens for eggs and once they're too old to lay they're basically pets. But one time a friend's neighbors who had chickens gave us two of theirs, and at the time I didn't know much about poultry parasites. I mean, the hens got them sometimes, but never badly, and so long as there were plenty of dustbathing spots for them to roll around in, they always cleared up.
I think one of the new hens was just fucked up from being kept in close confines--she'd had more room than a battery cage, but way less than my hens--and she was just crawling with mites. I tried poultry dust (basically a powdered insecticide) and that didn't really work. So I gave her a bath. Well, she wasn't used to being handled. Mine weren't either, but humans weren't the equivalent of horror movie monsters to them. This chicken flipped out at first, but then she seemed to calm down. Most of the mites ended up in the water and I wrapped her in a towel to dry off, she seemed like she'd be okay--and she shrieked and started thrashing, and choking, and she died. It took a couple of minutes and I spent the rest of the day having a shrieking weepy meltdown myself, because I'd literally frightened her to death, and I felt like a horror movie monster.
