We are still working out the details and this could happen anytime. We have 15 hens of various breeds and ages 2-5. I have a couple of big dog crates I can use. They will travel in a horse trailer (basic two horse, full divider, with horse on the other side) or in the back of a pickup truck (with a cab top). It could be winter and this is the northeast.
One crate is wire so I worry about little feet if it moves. The other crate is a big plastic one with a solid bottom. It is 3' x 2'. Should I maybe start watching craigslist for a second plastic one?
Not sure how to deal with food and water if at all. I was thinking it would be best to cover them and have water & feed at the end of the trip.
Just thought of it but are there any issues with transporting over state lines? We will be crossing about 7.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!!!
