Okay, I left with my college group on May 31st, 2012. We were working all summer long at Dollywood. A week later, my chickens quit laying on my parents, June 6th, 2012. I figured that they missed me, but I have been back for over 5 months, And they STILL have not started up again! This is crazy...

I have a 10' by 20' coop for 19 chickens. I winterized the run with 2 sheets of 7 mil plastic. It feels so much warmer in there. I still need to cover the top part of the coop with plastic to keep the blowing snow, rain, and wind out. After that I am gonna try the DLM. But how many bags of...

Okay I adore my RIR cockeral whom my father dubbed Col. Sanders but............... He's being a little to sexy for me. I chased him off the back porch 'cause my parents hates the chickens pooping on the porch. He turned around and started doing his little dance around me. I admit I am rather...

Okay I know my chickens are molting except my young pullets and cockerals. But I should be getting 2 eggs a day. I've been lucky if I get 1 every other day. Now my 2 Golf Balls have gone missing! I'm thinking the 3' Black Snake I've been seeing around the barn is the culprit. How do I prevent...

My father finally relented to letting me free-range my chickens. I let them out on Saturday morning. But on Sunday after I woke up from my nap around 7 pm I shooed them back into their coop. 2 cockerals and a BR pullet dissapeared. I'm wondering what got them? Hawk maybe? But no feathers. And...
