    Runaway bird

    Has anyone had a problem with a hen going MIA for a day or two then reappearing? We have a RIR she's about a year but we've only had her about 5 months.

    so much to learn

    She seems a little lethargic maybe, but I think it's really more stress, she backs herself Into a corner, then flips over on her back, it's really sad. I gave her some eggs. She is eating and drinking, a bit, no blood in poop or diarrhea in the brooder, I removed her to a separate brooder.
