Solo chick got your nerves scrambled? Here's the cluck-tastic game plan
Four weeks of solo chicken parenting, and honestly? You're doing better than most folks with a full coop would manage. That little lady has a personal chauffeur to the bed, a lap-pet service, and a private indoor playground, she's basically living the penthouse life while you stress about her social calendar. The mirror idea is sweet, but your gut is right to hesitate; a fake friend might just confuse her more than comfort her. What she really needs is time, and you're already giving her the best version of that. Keep up the cuddles, keep her busy, and when those farmer chicks finally arrive, she'll be the most well-adjusted, people-loving hen on the block.
