traumatized and depressed chicken, help!

[Chickenlover9-8]

just last night all but one of my flock of 9 died, the remaining chicken isn't moving, sleeping or talking! We are working on getting more chickens for her but without a flock I am afraid she will give up! what should i do while waiting for new chickens? (either a cat or raccoon got them, three of the bodies are missing)

Sorry for your loss, I'd say it a coon or something bigger.
She'll get over the shock, and be fine be herself until spring if that works better. Remember to quarantine new birds for atleast a month.

Ok, thanks. I guess she has go get over it sometime, although is there a way to cheer her up?

Make sure she's not injured and that the coop is secure, after, a mirror or stuffed animals will help. Just give her some extra tlc

She died this morning

I'm sorry to hear that, she must have had an internal injury.
