My brother dropped his hens off at my house last night as he's going on holiday. They're staying in our unusued dog run which has an attached shed. I opened the shed door this morning to let them into the run and one of them escaped. The run doesn't have a roof and she actually flew out! I ran into the house to get a bit of bread to lure her in but when I got back outside she had disappeared. A neighbour did spot her since but I can't find her. I'm hoping that she can see and/or hear the other hens and will return of her own accord. Any suggestions of how to lure her back?
Really hope she returns this evening. It's a week until my five year-old nephew will be back and asking for his hens.
I have put the remaining hens in our spare chicken tractor which is, I hope, escape proof.
