    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...

    Help! Chickens Pecking Each Other, Drawing Blood and Infections!!!!

    I would try separating the bullies from the flock for a few days. This may put them lower in the pecking order and break the cycle. If it doesn't help, I would put pinless peepers on them. I used those for a short time on 2 individuals who loved to eat feathers and it broke them of the habit...

    Hello, My life has gone to the chickens

    Welcome to BYC! You'll love it here! I noticed one of your chickens is named Mabel. Inspired by having chickens and BYC, I have written and illustrated two cartoon books (available on my website and on Barnes and Noble) called Mabel's World: Thinking Outside the Egg and Mabel's World 2...

    I had a chicken, who on two occasions suddenly became paralyzed and I thought she was dying. Her legs gave out and she just couldn't walk. However, after 20 minutes she got up and continued on her way completely fine. The first time I didn't know why. The second time I just happened to see she...
