Moving. Not sure what to do with my hen.

[Tylerblockbuster]

They are very calm as I am typing my 3 year old silkie is sleeping on my leg because he was to cold to stay outside all day

No brainer for me. Take her with you come on you only have one.
If you turn her loose that’s irresponsible and cruel.
How hard have you tried to rehome her?
Would you just leave your dog? Your cat?
The shelters are full of animals that the owner decided to move and “couldn’t take with them.”
They usually have them in kennels right next to 6-8 month old puppies that “couldn’t be housebroken or chewed too much”

My duck doesn't mind the car. Your hen should be fine.

Just on the long car ride she will poop a lot so be ready for that

Thank you! Since she's already over six years old, I'm trying to be very gentle with her.

 

[Damama]

Yeah! She will love it. Mine ride to the vet for check ups in the crate and just rest and sleep mostly. They don’t mind a bit.

Gosh that would be so great! I hope she does!

MissChick, I've never felt the need to ask any kind of question on a board before. So I must have been very concerned about the welfare of my elder hen. A three hour trip for an over six year old hen seemed very stressful for her.
Your response was so snarky and really unhelpful.
Did you read it before you sent it? Maybe through another's eyes. I'm sure you've been concerned over a pet before. How would you like it if someone talked to you like that? So many other gave such good advice and you were just hurtful.
I wish you the best Miss Chick. I wish you would treat others kinder. Even on the internet.
