Chicken boarders

[doctors girls]

Lost my second hen today after losing rose on the 11th may sj passed away today she was ok when I went to work this morning but on returning home she was just laid at the door of the wir she was just over 3 years old the same as rose as they came from the same flock and seem to have the same symptoms as each other they became very large birds and were unsteady on there legs the only problem now is that I am down to 1 hen and it will be at least 5 or 6 weeks before I can get any more due to holidays and new hens would be a struggle for my chicken sitter

Sorry to hear that you have lost another hen.

 

I hope your lone girl is getting on ok.

That's sad; I lost my girl today as well. Good luck when you get some new girls and I hope your lone girl makes some new friends.

Sorry you lost two of your girls in such a short space of time.

I hope your remaining girlie is ok - you will have to give her extra cuddles.

Sorry to hear about your loss. There seem to be quite a few of us in the same boat.

Take your time and all will fall into place.

thanks for all your thoughts martha is doing well she is continuing with her daily routine making her usual noises and laying her 4 eggs a week but it is going to be 5 weeks before the next lot arrive as stated in the first post

Sorry for your loss - I don't know the history but I was in a similar situation - lost two on the same day and had one alone who was miserable. I contemplated rehoming her just so she wouldn't be alone but in the end I rehomed two instead to bring my number back to 3. Having said that, the lady I buy wood chip off had one lone chicken for 3 months and all was ok. Is your hen upset at being alone?
