The DH beloved polish lap roo was lost last fall. I seriously think he couldnt see well enough to make his way back to the barn and probably got eaten out in a bush somewhere. When I say couldnt see I mean he ran into trees, wall, us
everything. And no, ponytail holders didnt help.
So, to ease the somber oh I still miss him attitude that Ive been dealing with for almost a year I picked up a polish hen a few days ago. Shes in semi-lock down after we discovered she does have mites and dont want them getting on the rest of our flock. But when we let her out in the evening she gets lost. Shes spent all but one night out who knows where, spreading her mites all over the place. Im getting a little pod! Im thinking that we need to LET her see her new home long enough for her to get an idea of where she is exactly.
Has anyone had a Polish that got lost, ran into walls, fought with their own head puff, etc. How did you remedy this? Can I trim her puff without traumatizing her?
