Hi all,
We bought 3 hens this morning to restart our flock. They’d only been in the enclosure (that has an electric fence) about 20 minutes when the neighbours cat walked past, scaring them. One managed to get out and has run into a dense hedge. Can’t see her in there or reach to see! She was afraid of us and running away too.
Is there any hope she might head back to the other 2 chickens at some point? She won’t have “bonded” with them yet or have any idea where her hen house or food is…
I put some corn near where she she went in and she hasn’t come even towards that
