Our "flock" is temporarily down to just ONE hen... and I am trying to make arrangements for her while we're on vacation for 2 weeks.
I could send her to a friends house, where she would probably stay in a dog crate in their garage at night, and would have some temporary fencing outside for during the day. They have older children who would help care for her and give her attention.
The other option is to have someone come here daily to check on her. She would have the security of her usual home, but not nearly as much attention, like she is used to with our kids.
What would you do? any advice or tips to make this work?
(Also she won't be alone for long, we have more pullets coming when we get back).
