JellyBean2605 Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 I've had to make the hard decision to seek a new home for Henrietta, she was OK over the summer but recently (and especially since she's had to be confined) she's become very downcast and been pulling out her feathers due to boredom. She's 3 and a half now so probably hasn't got long left but if anyone has any ideas of a better home for her I'd be greatful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Don't write her off she can live the same time again. If you don't know anyone then perhaps ask where you buy your feed if they can put you in touch with anyone. Also the feather pulling may be a dietary problem so a tonic may help her.

The Dogmother Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I had an 11 year old pekin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Pekin will be 9 this year and the ratbag will be 8. Edited to add maybe there is another lonely chicken somewhere that needs a companion. I wonder if they'd fight or be just happy to have a friend?
