My 1 yr old buff Orpington, Goldie, is a good layer....daily to every other day or two.
My now 6 mos old goldendoodle Lacie has been pretty good in her training to not bother the hens...I have 4.
About 10 days ago Goldie got out of their area and I heard her hollering. I knew by the sound she was being chased and when I got to her a minute later Lacie had her pinned under her front legs. The hen was uninjured from all I could see and today is still active and acting normal even in the presence of the dog.
The only difference is she has not laid one egg since it happened.
Am I missing an injury or is she traumatized because of what happened?
Should I just give her more time?
Thank you. I feel so bad.
