We have some new chickens in the flock at this time. They're about 9 weeks old now. Momma has taken very good care of them until just the past week when she has left them for a few hours each day to browse in the garden and field with her buddies. The chickies have been content to stay in the chicken run and take a nap at that time. All except one! Our little black and grey chick likes to wander off into the woods instead of taking a nap with her siblings. We have had stormy weather for two days now and the little chick has been lost in the woods since yesterday around 10 AM. We have had several windy, lightening filled down pours over night and I'm sure the little one is soaked and homesick (or eaten) by now.
Just thought I'd share.
