I suppose, but it would be a bit out of the way for them and they could have at least told the ents where they were going.

Well an event could have happened where the Man ents send their wives away for safe...and they would meet again later but who knows what has happened in the meanwhile....

Yet before the Second Age of Sun, the gardens of the Entwives were destroyed, and with the gardens went the Entwives. Among them was the spouse of Treebeard, Fimbrethil, who was called Wandlimb the Lightfooted. No tale tells of their fate. Perhaps the Entwives went to the South or East; but, wherever it was, it was beyond the knowledge of the Ents of the forests, who wandered in search of them for many long years. They simply left and were never found .

Didn’t Sam say in the Green Dragon that his cousin Hal see an elm tree walking in the North Moors? That sounds like it is an Ent or and Entwife. And wouldn’t the ents stick around the entmoot so they can have their meetings? That leads me to believe that is where the Entwives are living.

ok, this is a little extract from the Tolkien encyclopeidia of the Ents passage. "But the Ents gradually grew apart from the Entwives, and the `Entlings` became few. The Entwives grew less interested in in trees and forests, being more concerned with grasses, flowers and shrubs, and all the lesser growing things. They made gardens to live in, where they grew ever more skillful at these pursuits, while the Ents continued to wonder and saw the Entwives less often. Towards the end of the first age, the Entwives crossed the great river eastwardsto escape the rolling darknessfrom the north;their agriculture contiued to bring them great honour from menbut, in the end, the warsthey sought to escapeswept over their country, leaving only brown lands and barren earthwhere their gardens had flowered. By the time of the war of the ring, at tyhe end of the third age, the surviving Ents had long hidden in their remaining woods, of which Fangorn was the cheif survivor. There they wondered alone, dwindling, but still tending to their beloved trees".
I hope this helped.

That explains a little bit about why they left and a very small bit about where they went. But mostly that just told us what we already knew. But still, good work Amras ;D

I heard that the ents were bigger and stronger than the entwives, but there wasn't much difference.

I wouldn't see much difference in Entwives, and ents. They will have slight facial differences but no major differences. I personally think that the Entwives are in the Old Forest.
