Eyren Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Sorry to hear that Have they perhaps gone to shelter somewhere and not been able to find their way home? AFAIK, chickens don't have a great sense of direction. Maybe you could leaflet the area and go looking for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina C Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 No advice really - just wanted to say sorry to hear your news. Keep your lone chicken safely tucked up tonight and fingers crossed the others will find their way home tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Sorry to hear the news. Could you ask neighbours if you could look in their gardens? They could be disorientated and hiding in shrubs. Best of luck in finding them. Let us know how you get on....and welcome to the forum.....sorry your first post is a difficult one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 Sorry to hear this, Lynne . I hope you find them soon. I know others have lost chickens only to find them later so hopefully you will too . I would ask around as much as possible - surely 2 hens and a cockeral would soon be spotted.

Abbey Road Girl Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 So very very sorry to hear of this situation, Lynne. We are all pulling for you and your chooks. May you all be reunited safely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Any news? I'd hope that they all stuck together and sheltered somewhere. Surely the cockerel should make his presence known in the morning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MedusA Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 So sorry to hear this. I do hope your girls and cockrel turn up safe and sound. We're they locked in? Could someone have got in and taken them? It's very mystifying. *fingers crossed* you find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
druids57 Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 I was going to say too that if you got up early and walked around locally and they were shut in or lost surely you would hear the cockeral Good Luck in finding them Druid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
