Welcome!!!!

I have a hen that is 5 yrs old (Black Sexlink) she lost both her feet this year, she is getting around fine, the other girls were picking with her for a while but she has learned to avoid the girls that are most aggressive with her, She doesn't act in pain at all, And she gets around fine her...

Thankyou CA Jersey chick, I understand what your saying, I put the open dog crate in the big coop *chicken house) just so that they didn't have to try and climb up into the nesting boxes the crate is totally open so that they, Momma and chick can come in and go out at will so there is no...

I have had chickens for several years now and have raised babies but this is the first time I have let my girls hatch their own in the big coop. IN the past I have always separated out the broodies but I didn't this time and went out this morning and found Lady bird (Oprington/Cochin ) mix a 4...

I still am not 100% sure with Indi, I still Kinda believe he is a boy, though hes about 9 months old and hasn't crowed one time yet! The other Roosters don't mind him being around the girls at all , infact Indi changed his own residence LOL he moved his/her self in with the big chickens just...

Silly Question I know, but I have( 5) 6 month old Speckled Sussex Roosters None Crow at all and they just started using there grown up voices ,well pretty sure I do (at least they were sexed as males ), all of them are as sweet as they can be, however one of the boys has just started squatting...

I understand where your coming from, but it would still be stealing unless you got the owners of the chicken to agree to let you take the hen and let her have her chicks in your coop. One question though, Did the renters even try and talk to the owners or did they call you first off? What...

Thats a great idea about putting the frozen bottles of water in the waterers! Thanks
