The other evening, my husband was outside. He said suddenly something scared all the chickens and they all ran into the coop, except one. One hen few HIGH up into a tree and stayed there the rest of the night. Since then she will not go into the coop at night with the rest of the chickens. I am worried about her and worried hernot going in the coop at night might lead the other hens to stay out. Also, she is such a beautiful hen and I would hate to lose her due to her staying out at night. We live in the country and have seen raccoons many of times on our trail camera and im scared one might get her. Will she go back in at night eventually? Do I need to tryt and hoax her in with treats in the evening?? Any advice or opinions would be helpful!
