Hi just a quick question for now. Have acquired a chicken found at husbands works.Could have been dumped or escaped of lorry maybe.Dont know but there is no farms or houses near by.
Anyway I would like to know if she is of any breed as such. She is very very skinny extremely hungry etc. Feathers are not looking that great as you can see from the pictures.Apart from this she seems to be ok,very active and alert.Now I don't know much about chickens only had one before we rescued her she was very old we think,and we had her for 8 months before sadly she passed away. Now do chickens just have a natural instinct to climb a ladder? As Omlet we have named this one went up the ladder to coop with no problems at all,as if she had been doing this all the time.So I am thinking if she escaped of lorry surly she would not have come from anywhere where they would be using ladders? Or am I just being a bit stupid with this theory! Any ideas on breed and possibly how old she might be much appreciated.Thank you in advance.
