Stray chicken in my yard

[nanci1989]

This chicken is a stray in the neighborhood. What can anyone tell me about it? Gender, age, breed?

I can barely see it

Does this help at all?

 

[Rod-T]

Not really. I can't tell

It's a hen.

I knew it was a bad picture but it runs off when I try to get closer. Wii work on getting a better pic. What is the protocol with neighborhood chicks? Should I try and capture her or let her do her thing?

It looks like a hen, you should definitely try to capture it it looks pretty young and domestic chickens cannot find enough food on their own. Good luck!

If you don't take her - the neighbor dogs and cats will end up killing her or some predator will eat her on the spot.
