From what folks in this area have told me we may have had a terrible hatch this year. I have been asking around and no one has seen anything more then 2 poults with a hen. Every hen I have seen over the last few weeks has been alone or with other hens that were also alone.
Anyone else seeing this?

Saturday I had a hen and six poults cross the road in front of me. That was maybe three miles from our property. The only ones that I have seen in the area, and none on or in the immediate vicinity of our place.

I have seen several hens alone in the past couple of weeks, but I also saw 4 different hens with poults (3, 3, 5, and 6) this past weekend when I was checking my game cameras. So I don't think it was a terrible year around my place, but it certainly wasn't a banner year either.

Glad you all in west TN are seeing them because in this region there seems to be none.
