I am going to go on vacation for a week in August, and I need advice on how to care for the Hens when I am not here. They have a large fully-insulate coop in the backyard with about 100 feet of grass access. The water and food very rarely runs out before one week. Is is conceivable/normal to add more feeders and waterers and leave them for one week? Will they be okay? The most trouble they have been in so far is getting caught in a net trying to run away from a squirrel.
Also, is there a regular 'pet sitter' that doesn't charge a wing and a leg to check in on the birds? How about a farm that would take them in for a week? I am near rockville, maryland
