i have 6 week old chicks that have been free ranging for a week or 2 now and they been doing great wont get farther then 2-3 feet from the coop, well I went away to go get gas to mow in town, get back and 2 are dead had been attacked by either the cat or dog, but all others are missing no since of others dead no other feathers im assuming they got chased or scared back into the woods which is 20-30 yards from the coop, I waited till dark they didn't come back, I walked everywhere listening for them and nothing, im scared there to young to find there way back, any advice. im nervous that I let them free range to young now! there are 4ducks and 2 geese and they were unharmed in the coop still when I got back!
