I while back I posted about my broody hen and how she was so eager to hatch. Since that day she has still been broody and I have no Idea what to do. I have taken her eggs then have let her laid them, i've separated her then put her back, I've even hand fed her in fear that she'll starve. She...

<< video linked below >> This is my sweet blue copper maran, Pippin. She's been laying since September 2023. A very odd layer, she laid every single day for the first month and then took three months off. She's now back to a fairly consistent every other day, but she's started a new pre-laying...

Hi! We have a Welsummer that is about 7 months old. Normally when I go into the coop in the morning to give the hens some worms, she runs straight up to the door and is clucking very loudly. We noticed the last couple of days she has been very quiet, moving slowly, and sleeping a lot standing...
