Thankfully storm turned away from us. So we only got a little rain and some wind. Nothing horrible. Thanks be to God.

Leaving the chickens behind was the best option. Where ever you evacuate to would be burdened by your travel companions. Hope they had high roosts with their feed as high as possible.

Everything is all right after the storm ya'll! No flooding, just a lot of branches in my yard. A LOT of branches! The chickens were happy to see me and the outdoors, and now I just have to clean out the garage... Thank you for the support during Florence, and I wish everyone hit the best of luck and prayers!

That's good to hear.

There were losses though. Sanderson Farms, one of the biggest poultry producers in the US had 60 barns flood during the aftermath. 1.3 million of their birds drown and another 400,000 on other farms. I guess that is a drop in the bucket compared to the 4.5 million chickens they produce every week.
I heard there were an extraordinary number of hogs that drown too on at least a dozen swine farms.
