Just wanted to update. Oddly enough the behavior just stopped. There hasn't been an incident in several days now with either bird. The bantam is still broody and the goose has started laying eggs consistently this past week and both have been completely peaceful. I'm hoping this continues but...

I see. Well I'll try separating her and see what happens in a few months.

Bantam is higher on the pecking order. No, the bantam isn't going near anything. She is broody right now so I'm wondering if it's because she is being a little more aggressive as well. The chickens have nest boxes the goose can't get into. They've been together since November with no...

Just odd to me she is singling out one bird. She's not even my only bantam, I have others smaller than her.

I'll separate her and see if she does better later in the summer. She already sleeps in a separate coop with the few birds she was raised with. I'll keep a close eye out. The bantams are being kept in a dig crate right now for integration so they are safe, I'll take some more time than I...

Thank you. I can try that.

I decided to try and raise a gaurd goose after several of my birds were taken or killed by hawks. I got my baby African goose from a hatchery in October. I got very attached to her. She was raised with a group of chicks that she did very well with, and until now has been completely peaceful...

I can not.

Just wanted to let everyone know I found homes for all of the birds! I have recieved many pictures and they are happy in their new flocks. I made sure to send them off in groups so they wouldn't be introduced to a new flock alone. Even the guinea found a new flock of fowl, and he seems so much...

hi everyone. I was sent here from my rehoming thread i posted. Due to medical complications, I am in need of homes for several of my chickens and one guinea fowl. They are all hens and pullets, and very nice pretty birds. I got them from My Pet Chicken. White Leghorn (Pullet) 3 Easter Eggers...

Thank you, if forgot to add location. I haven't thought of it, maybe I can find a facebook group. I'll update. He is a pear guinea fowl, i don't know much about him as this was supposed to be my first year keeping guineas.

I have a single guinea fowl in need of a home. I am unsure of sex. Unfortunately his whole flock was taken by a fox a couple weeks ago and I won't be in a position to get anymore for a while, and I don't want him to be alone. No pictures now, as it is pouring rain, but I can get some on request.

Hello everyone. It's been a while. Unfortunately, my life has changed, and I am in need of homes for a sizable portion of my flock. I have many birds, all still laying eggs and some under 6 months of age, all hens or pullets. I am only keeping a select number of birds. The breeds available are...

Yay! So glad. Yeah, USPS has been fast lately. I've asked a couple other people too and while we usually receive our orders after two days lately it has been next morning.

Thanks 🥰 yeah, my dog does really good with my birds now, I've been working with him and them for almost 3 years and I completely trust him alone with them, and I know he would protect them if he thought something meant them harm. My little dog on the other hand... he's a work in progress. He's...

Yes. I would also call. I forgot, for last week's order with the DOA chick, someone screwed up and my chicks ended up on a mail truck. So while I'm waiting in line to pick up my order, the mail man calls and asks if someone is home to sign for the chicks, even though they were specifically...

Yeah I mean I think it depends. The yolk takes around 3 days before full absorption, so generally I would say that is safe. I've only had DOA chicks twice in the 6 years I've been keeping, the first was the aforementioned deaths after waiting 4 days for the package to arrive. That was a bit of...

The chicks, ducklings, and goose got to go outside today. It was warm enough in the afternoon. With temps getting lower I wasn't Square, they be able to get outside this fall. But everybody seems to be having a lot of fun. The ducklings have been swimming. The goose doesn't seem to want to...

Which hatchery is it? I know My Pet Chicken does small shipments. I've gotten chicks from them before. All I will say is the only time my shipment took 4 days 4 of my chicks passed and the other two were very weak, but survived. I don't say that to scare you, they very well may be perfectly...

Cool. I am expecting them to wander in the woods and probably the neighbors yard. I showed them a video 😂 and they still said it was fine. I think I could also get them a coop for the woods if they are too much for the yard.
