Had to run into town this afternoon, when I got back. I notice my PR roo was out of his pen he never gets out, he's able to if he really tries but in the year I've had him this is only the second time. Well he was scratching the ground in a fret and alarming something crazy!!! So a ran to their house and his girl was gone, vanished. In the morning I let all my girls out to free range with my bantam roo, he and his girl a Barred rock stay in as that what they prefer.
Well.. all afternoon I cleaned up the pen and raked up the feathers that was left behind, but when it came time for them to go to bed they would not go roost in the coop, and my PR took off to the wood behind the property, my son is out there now with the spot light looking for him. My other 5 girls are scatter here and there, I've got 2 on my back porch, and 3 in the open shed huddled together. I feel so bad for them and don't know what to do.
I've went set up the game camera and have it set up closer to the coop, maybe I'll see what's getting them. I've lost 3 girl in 2 weeks and now have my gun lock and loaded, I've had my flock for 4 years and have never had problems before. I'm mad now..
