Sorry to hear about Goldy disappearing. Any chance she snuck off to hatch some eggs? Have had that happen to a friend who's chicken disappeared for about 22-days. ;o) And then showed up again with eight unexpected babies.... You can always hope.

Looking forward to seeing pictures of the chickens! Seems like it always will help. Last night I only got as far as page 5 of this thread looking for chicken pictures.....

Thanks for the reply and the good wishes.

We are in Oregon, in St. Johns. We are fixing to move down to Lakeside, OR. Population 1200-something. THEN we will have chickens!

Would anyone in Portland like to "show off" their chickens? Since we can't have any until we move, I'd love to actually see some 'working' chicken coops/runs!

Any of you out here in Scappoose, St Helens, Warren, Rainer area?

We aren't that far from you. We're near the St. Johns Bridge.

My dad was in St. Helens when he was in the last couple of years, in Avamere. Good place - we drove out there often to visit him and do his shopping. If you ever want to show off your chickens, just let me know!

I can only hope , but she was not the broody type. However , going off to hatch eggs would be dangerous as there are so many racoons around at night. I've lost two chickens who did just that and another two who just refused to go into the coops at night and chose to roost in a tree instead.
If you knew Goldys story then you would say there is definitely hope and that's the reason I still go out every day hoping to see her again.
I will be posting pictures soon.
