Re: One chicken left

I dont think your chook would be frightened of a dog: they see to take everything in their stride mine have never bothered about my dogs or cats (tend to beat up the neighbours cats :D ). I would however get another chook or rehome her as she will get fed up and maybe depressed.

Good luck hun
