Chicken Recluse

Here she hides in coop no longer used

Our oldest chicken came from a home where she was the only one for awhile until a rooster came along.  So she was used to being on her own.  Well, one year later and she's surrounded by 4 other Buff Orpingtons, 5 Astralorps and a few guineas.

She mainly hangs around the guineas, or off by herself, but never with the other chickens.  Sometimes she makes her way to the coop that she stayed in when she first arrived instead of foraging.  She is our oldest and was the first (sigh)...the only one that came to us as an adult.

  I was thinking of making her old coop more accessible so she could have more alone time.  I have no clue how old she is.  But I was told she was old when we got her.
