I just have the one but I check on her multiple times. She has free range on the yard but sleeps and lays in a dog crate on the screen porch. I figure I hold her at least an hour a day. I have 2 dogs and a cat too so i dont get a lot done but my critters are loved and happy!It's become a real issue for me! I walk outside to start working on some project and constantly find myself wandering over to watch or check on the chickens. It's pathetic!
