Ella's Gift

Our one and only naked neck (Turken), named Ella, surprised us with 11 beautifully assorted chicks this past Friday. Three of them shared their mom's lack of neck feathers.
 
Unfortunately, while doing chores this morning, I found sweet Ella's lifeless body, and her chicks were scattered. I've recovered 4 chicks, and have pretty much given up hope of finding any more. I'm sure whatever killed Ella probably got the missing chicks.
