Lone chicken and southern winters

[sweetchix]

I am down to one Buff Orphington hen who is 3 years old and always been bossy. Can she survive the winter by herself? We live in Memphis where the winters aren't terribly cold and we do have the coop insulated during the winter. I plan to get more in the spring. Do you think she will survive the winter or do I need to find her a home with otner chickens?

She will be fine physically through winter, she will keep herself warm, just make sure she has somewhere out of the wind to spend her days, but mentally it depends on if she's lonely.
