My little brother found a little baby sparrow by our house. It's nest is too far up to reach and I read that it's pointless to put them back because they are just going to be pushed out again. I put it in a tupperware lined with a hand towel and have been feeding it canned cat food. It looks a...

My 3 month old americauna pullet is walking on her hock and seems to have a broken leg. I picked her up and examined her leg by bending the base of her leg, her hock, and her ankle. They seemed okay buy I'm guessing something's wrong in her ankle so she's walking on her hock to keep pressure of...

Last night when I was out loving my new horse I heard one of the hens FREAKING out. I glanced over at the coop.. it was too late for them to be singing an egg song.. I didn't see anything. Then the panicked clucking stopped ..... So I went back to brushing Penny Later that night my sister and I...

My pekin girl, Yuki, who is still recovering from her broken leg, laid a soft- shelled egg in the duck pool last night or this morning.. or at least I think it was her. She has laid two eggs in the time we've had her.. maybe a month or so? Her first one she laid a while ago and she laid it in a...

Last night my neighbors called and said they had a chicken in their yard. We went over to attempt to catch it but it got dark so she flew up into one of their trees too high for us to reach.

I lifted up the duck pool to dump it, looking to see if there was and big bugs to throw to the chickens. I didn't see anything until I turned and fast movement caught my eye. I turned around to see what I thought was a big worm and was in a state of chock when I realized this was no worm at...

Lately we have noticed that our americauna pullet has been limping. First it was just when she ran, it looked like she was cantering like a horse or something... Then I noticed her limping even when she was just walking. I looked at the foot she was limping on and the pad is much larger than her...

I'm thinking about possibly getting some golden pheasants and I have a few questions... 1) Can they live in with my chickens and ducks? 2) Can I clip their wings so they don't fly over my fence? (it's about 5ft high) 3) What is the ratio of male to female? 4) How big are they compared to...
