My flock is now 1. Was out of town for a few days, asked the neighbors kid to feed and water my chickens for 2 days. He is not sure he locked the coop last night. Needless to say only 1 survived, found her wedged up under the deck of the house, a good distance from the coop. Though I am upset I paid him - he does feel bad - call me a sucker I feel sorry for him too. Just an innocent mistake.
But my question is - I cannot replace them until next month. Will she be okay for a month until I can get more?? She's a good hen and feel for her being alone, but right now I can't do anything about it that quickly.
Any advice or suggestions. I have thought of trying to find her home.
Thoughts??
Thank you
