    Chicken exhibiting strange behavior after coopmate's death

    Yikes Well maybe I'll just keep babying her and hope she snaps out of it. We didn't plan on getting more chickens after these two went. And if new ones won't help there isn't much point to it. :(

    Yeaaah. The other hatcheries are much further north. I'll keep looking. I just feel like she's gone mental.

    None anywhere near me and shipping for one is $80.

    Or even give me some direction to find a hen. All I seem to see on hatchery sites are chicks.

    I'm in Chillicothe Ohio. If anyone would adopt her that would be great too. She is an amazing layer. Such a sweetheart. Will run up to us and wait on us at the door in the mornings.

    I would think she would be fearful.. she does try to come in the front door. And I allow her the oppurtunity although I'm not sure what I would do if she accepted the invitation.

    We had a Buff Orpington & a Jersey Giant. approximately 4 weeks ago, a hawk got the Buff. Our Jersey is reacting very strangely.. She is not going to her coop at night.. she has been found nestled in the yard, the playhouse, and on our porch. I have carried her to her coop, and within an hour...

    Broken guinea leg

    oh GOD. I'm sorry :( I have zero advice as I've been extremely lucky to not have any illness/injuries/predation with our free rangers. I'd probably take her to a vet? do vets even do chickens? yeeeesh. :( poor thing.
