What's there life expectancy? Me and my dad have no idea. If she lasts through this winter I think she will be with us for a bit longer.

Chickens usually live for 6-10 years though most die of disease or predation. Some pet chickens if they are lucky and kept healthy can live even longer, I have heard of chickens living to their twenties as well!

My longest living chicken is 16 years!

She is sadly dead now, from a fox, but she was a light sussex called Roadrunner

Sorry for your loss.

Thankyou, I was crying so bad, half of the flock was lost, the fox didn't even eat them!

Has anyone had a fox attack in their flock?
