My BIL dropped off his last remaining hen yesterday. He's been having predator issues and they decided to rehome rather than to risk another attack. She's a sexlink and she's really docile and pretty. She's secluded for now in her own pen, but the other hens are squacking at her big time. She's been on the perch all day long and hasn't done anything. I don't think she's been eating at all. I put in a nesting box and plenty of food and water but I haven't seen her venture off at all. My girls are already attached to her very much, and I want her to thrive. I'm worried that she was hurt somewhat in the last predator attack, or that she's in shock over being moved or due to the attack. What can I do to help her?
