    feather pecking

    Apart from using pinless peepers and having a larger space, I would figure out who is doing the feather picking and separate her from the flock. Good luck with this! Keep us posted!

    Chick integration- not going as smoothly as last time around- GRAPHIC sad update

    I don't know if I am overly cautious but I have always waited until my newbies are about 12 weeks before leaving them in the coop overnight. I free range them together or even allow some pen time together at about 10 weeks. When I finally do have them in the coop overnight I always put them...

    Apparently if you don’t want your chickens, dump them at my place!

    I had someone drop off a rooster once in the middle of a cold January night.We woke up and my husband told me the rooster was crowing. I said, "but we don't have a rooster." I went out to investigate and found a rooster standing in the pitch black in a snowbank. I grabbed him and brought him...

    Rooster is henpecked

    Is it all the hens plucking out the feathers or just one? I have used pinless peepers before on the guilty hen or hens and they work. Another idea is if it is just one instigator, to isolate that one for a bit instead of the rooster. This may rearrange the pecking order and stop the behavior.

    Hi! New to chickens in AZ

    Welcome to BYC! Beautiful chicks! I purchased 2 Buff Orpingtons as chicks and named them Buffy and Ophelia. Well they turned out to be Brahmas! They must have gotten into the "wrong bin" as you say! (To be fair, they were fluffy and yellow like Orpington chicks. )🤣 Very nice birds also and...

    One of my flock grabbed at a chick

    I never wanted to take a chance regarding how my chickens would be towards the chicks. I made a plywood partition that was removable. I blocked off one end of the coop to temporarily house the mother hen and chicks. I did this until the chicks were getting feathers and then I moved them to a...

    I tried so hard to keep him alive.

    So sorry for your loss! Having a soft and loving heart is a good thing, though love does come with a cost. Even so, how much better to love!
