Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

I guess all I can suggest is that you look in every corner and crevass you can find. Was he with a hen?

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?
