On Saturday am we found a dead bird in the coop. No marks on the chicken at all just appeared to have died. One week prior saw the chicken lingering in the coop when the others were let out, but that was it. Went out Saturday pm and found my favorite chicken in a heap in the corner un able to...

I already have two roos. To afraid to put these guys out with my big birds. Just over two months old. Roo crowing. Still have them in the house and would like to get them out! Will not ship, pick up only please. Located in Springport, Mi

Hello! Was wondering what breed bantams I ended up with? I want to re-home them and don't know what to list them as? I got them thrown in the box at TSC because they had bloody feet. I didn't think they would make it, but here they are! One is now crowing. Surprise! lol! Already have...

Hello fellow chicken lovers! My Frenchy had a bad case of the bumble foot. She was very lame! I lanced and drained the abscesses using the step by step photo instructions I found on here. Soaked and bandaged it for a couple weeks. It has now been about three weeks. She is much better! Not...

Getting rid of all of my oops roos I got with my pullets. Do ya'll think this is a pullet or a roo??? Sorry the pic is sideways can't figure out how to change.

This is Pearl. I adore her!

I have a seven year old neutered male Netherland dwarf, Bilbo Baggins. Over the last few weeks he has been blowing his coat. In the past I've had rabbits have some intermittent diarrhea and be off or down for a couple days when they're molting. Bo has always gotten diarrhea for a couple days...

My new Flemish is always bored! No matter how much time I'm down there with them. He's got boxes, chew sticks, a bell, toilet paper rolls and blankets. What do you guys use for rabbit toys?

I have some ~8 week old chicks. They've out grown their brooder, but aren't big enough yet to go in with the big girls. They are still about 1/4- 1/2 the size of them. Here's what I was thinking of doing. I made a fence inside the big girls run for the chicks they can not get at each other...

Glad I listened to you guys and waited to put my chicks in with the big girls. It is a chilly night in Michigan tonight and those little babes would surely be cold with out their lamp!! Guess summer is already over here. We got a whole two weeks of hot.

Ha Ha! Well I just got a new bunny on last Friday, but when we went to a nursery for more garden plants the woman had FLEMISH GIANTS!!! A breed I have been wanting for a couple years now! So.....I got him. I love him!!!! Since we already had three I figured whats one more right? Well I...

I'm still stewing over weather or not to keep my roo. I posted a few weeks ago about him starting to charge me in the coop. I've gotten after him a couple of times! On Sunday he actually made contact and bit me hard. I have a big black and blue pinch welt. I was just reaching for the...

Wondering if you guys think these chicks look big enough and feathered enough to be out from under a light and in the coop in a separate cage from the big girls. It's been in the 60's here in Mi at night and in the high 80's during the day and humid. Want them out of my basement!! LOL! Also...

Couldn't help it! Need a new bunny like a hole in the head. However I lost my big bun about a month ago now and I've been sad only having two buns. Yesterday was my birthday so I decided to treat myself. Meet Dempsey. Unless anyone else has a name suggestion. Name must be associated with...

I've been using a rubber pan. My chickens keep knocking it over. What do you all use? Thanks.

One of my young ladies (under a year) laid a skin to an egg today. It was not hard at all. It was as thin as paper. I'm not sure that it was even the skin to a whole egg. I thought maybe someone may have cracked it and eaten it, but it really doesn't look like the case? This "skin" was very...

that I'd found on Craigslist. I told myself I was only getting 3. I said self you're only getting 3!! I came home with 7. No surprise right???!!! LOL! Oi! These are my first chicks. I'm so nervous! I hope I don't kill them, they seem so fragile. They are four weeks old. I got 5 EE and...

Hello all, Wanting to get a couple more chickens. I love the look of my easter eggers, but my isa browns seem to be more friendly. Does any one else think this to be true? What do you think is the friendliest breed of all the chickens?

And I thought I was raising him up nice. He's only 8 months old. I sure hope it doesn't get worse from here. Nasty Roosters is the reason I was afraid of chickens in the first place. He may just have to go on down the road. All my girls are very nice and polite. I said I was going to try a...

I can't help it! My chickens are so darn cute! Two of the girls got out of their yard today and into the horse pasture. We've not finished putting the rocks around the edges so I think they found a hole. Guess I know what I'm doing tomorrow! Lol! Any whoo.... so I went out to get them...
