    From what I understand, no. “Black Irish” refers to Irish people of Spanish ancestry. Dark hair, dark eyes, Irish skin lol

    Ground predator? Hubbby saw a rat the size of a kitten.

    Where you see one there are many more. Now that rat is just someone else’s problem. Hopefully not if it’s in the woods but I wouldn’t ride 20 miles with a rat 😆

    I had very little luck catching a rat in a trap but you can always try. It might be easier to sit outside the coop with a gun. Sounds like you might be a candidate for that job than the husband 😆😆

    If it is really big maybe. I found a huge dead rat in my chicken run one day. He had his arms up like he was trying to surrender. The chickens, apparently, did not accept.

    I want to suck the sour crop liquid out with a feeding tube from my chicken's crop but

    I think removing it with the syringe out the top is what OP is saying vets do. I wouldn’t know I have never taken a chicken to vet for sour crop lol

    What is wrong with my rooster’s comb?

    If it is fowl pox there isn’t much to be done about it. It’s a virus and will clear itself in a few weeks. But it would also be evident on other chickens.

    I have never heard of anyone doing this. The risk of aspiration sounds like it would be very high. Interested to see what others have to say.

    🤣 I can empathize completely If I remember right this was when they were all out free-ranging right? It had nothing to do with the coop?

    I wonder if she is torn between her love for the coop and her love for her friend? 😆 I imagine once the little ones are out full time she will want to be where they are and she will be an asset—especially when it comes to the rooster. The jungle fowl might also be helpful in raising him to be a...

    Sorry it posted before I could finish They don’t generally like to sleep alone. Even my tree rooster has decided to sleep on a box near the coop or sometimes in the run. (He has never slept in a coop in his life so I don’t think it’s occurred to him to enter the actual coop). So she might not...

    Do they hang out together during the day? My random tree sleepers haven’t convinced the rest of the flock to join them…much to my chagrin…but they do all generally stick together during the day. BUT my situation is reversed because I had coop-trained pullets then got a tree-sleeping rooster...
