Tonight, Riot left this realm for the Rainbow Bridge. She fell ill, declined rapidly and passed away in my arms at around 2am.
If you've followed along with our adventures, you've probably seen this tiny girl pop up from time to time. Riot may have been one of the smallest animals here, but she was, without question, one of the biggest personalities. She was funny, feisty, ridiculously charming, and so incredibly special to me. She was everything.
Every once in a while, an animal comes along who simply owns a different piece of your heart. Riot was that to me. She wasn't "just a chicken." She was my little girl, a good friend, a heart-bird, and I adored her more than I could ever adequately put into words.
Our little flock, and this entire place won't be the same without her. Our tiny welcoming chicken is gone.
Rest easy Riot. You were loved beyond measure and there will never, ever be another like you.
