    Something eats chicken feed and leaves wet lumps of it behind...

    I second the rats. They leave a greasy trail wherever they go and if you’ve ever dug up a rat’s nest it looks just like that food—clumpy and moist. There are rat-proof feeders that might make things easier. I had to take my food in every single night because we had a horrid rat problem. @Al...

    Help Identify Gender

    Licorice, Pumpkin and Treble are dudes. Does Treble walk funny? My rooster has a wonky foot too and he walks a bit slow but he’s the best boy so I don’t worry about it. He can roost fine and do his job. So I wouldn’t be for culling Treble unless his foot is really affecting his quality of...

    Oh it’s not the groomer’s fault. It’s just I have a stupid looking dog once you get the floof off.

    Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

    That’s kind of a broad brush though I get what you’re saying. I mostly see people not tolerating aggressive roosters when children are involved, which I agree with wholeheartedly. If one has the time and inclination to deal with a rooster’s bad habits then more power to them but some situations...
