have you tried the bucket test?

all of our chickens come running, when we have the feed scoop rattling with feed in it.........

our are pretty vocal about it too.........might be, if your's are the same, it may help, if she's around....

All you have to have here is a black seed tray……..Everything comes running.

I'm sure that comes in handy on the critter roundups

We don't do any kind of regular treat feeding, but maybe I will start. We just do random treats from random containers.

I would think just going to roost would bring her back at night. That's why I hoped she may be broody. Hopefully she's just wandered off. The alternative is depressing

Really hope she turns up...

Rather than a specific container, I would use a specific call, noise, whistle or bell each time you feed treats until they associate treats with the sound... better for if one gets out of sight to call it in... j/s...

I'll take him! I have a leaky bladder. He and I will get along fine

You think a hay bail might have landed on her?

I will start doing that.

My awesome wife and daughter found her!!

I've never been so happy to see a chicken in my life! Whooohooo!

It was in a neighbors yard with a barking dog. I guess the dog was tied up and kept barking so my wife drove around to their house and my daughter spotted it.

Thank you for the encouragement and ideas everyone!

Yup.

We grow the fodder in the seed trays, thats why everyone gets excited when they see them.
