Hen killed by hawk or owl now one hen left :"(

I came home today and some stupid bird had killed my hen. I ran it off, but it was to late for my girl . Now there I only have one hen left.... When should I get her another coop mate? HELP!

Sorry to hear that. It must have been terrible to come home to. You can get a coop mate at anytime.

I'm so sorry for your loss. As for introducing another flock mate, I found you can do that anytime you need to. Here's a good article on it: http://www.mypetchicken.com/backyar...duce-new-chickens-into-my-old-flock-H128.aspx
