Two of my chickens in a flock of three were attacked and killed last night by what appears to be foxes. The roost door was left open and only one survived with a major loss in feathers, but no obvious injuries. I'm grieving over the loss as I was very attached to each one, but I now fear for the health of my surviving hen. She is in what appears to be shock and grief over her flock's death and I'm not exactly sure what to do with her. She is somewhat old at 4 years old and I'm considering making her a house chicken or possibly looking for a new home with another flock belonging to a friend. I would be thankful for any suggestions on this matter, as I am still quite traumatized.
