Hi all! I have a very specific situation where I unexpectedly got baby chicks and will have to return them to the ranch temporarily. I have been raising my 3 chicks as pets and they are 5 weeks old now. They will be too big for my brooder inside my house and my backyard is not coyote-proof...
Hi all,
I want to introduce the project I’ve been working on! My Pet Chicken Project!
I love my chickens and while there’s certain breeds I gravitate towards I noticed that they all carry varying health issues, ornaments (huge combs, too intensely feathered feet, too high egg production etc)...
Like the title says, what kind of dog do you have!? Please share and feel free to post pictures if you want!!!! I’m just curious. Please and thank you!!!!
I'm a proud owner of a rooster named Hydra, and though I love him very much he is a pain in the butt. I only have one chicken as he was a rescue when he was a day old and I had no intention of getting a yard bird. He spends a good majority of his time with the family including our other pets (3...
Hey All,
I am a 29 year old male who lives in North Hollywood, CA and about 2-3 months ago a young chicken walked into my front yard. It was cute and pretty quickly seemed to form some attachment to me. I found the chicken to be surprisingly chill an friendly.
I live in a small house with two...
I have a 1 year and 10 months male broiler (not for consumption, he's a pet) and I noticed how he seldom eats his feeds. His feed is enertone and thought that it doesn't suits the nutrients that he needs at his age. What kind of feeds should I buy and the content?
A chicken friend of mine has a young house rooster who suddenly became lethargic and his comb turned black at the ends. She’s isolated him for now and he’s had some very wet, green poops. Any idea what could be wrong with him?
The comb is shiny because it has Vaseline on it. No sign of injury...
Hello, i’m deaf and I own chickens for 7 years. I got near 20 chickens now have 6 more new chicks. Overall is 26. I have five ducks~. Preview i had 6 guinea fowls but one got hit by car which is my last 7 years old guinea fowls. I sold 5 guinea fowls to a better place where not too close a road.

I am getting 2 ducks as pets. I want to get 2 so one isn’t lonely, but I’ve been debating whether to get 2 Khaki Campbell ducks or 2 Pekin ducks, and was wondering if I could just get 1 of each? I’m not sure if they would get along together, and I’m not sure how to go about researching it
Hallo,
I’m SlyPsychic, and just joined so thought I might as well answer the intro questions.
1. I’m not new to chickens really, had them when I was younger for half my minor years, but I am new to having my own chickens that I purchased and take care of (Idk, I’ve had them for 6, almost 7...
This dove has been sneaking around my chicken coop lately. Today I tried to get a closer look & she ended up going IN the coop!
She let's me get close (doesn't much appreciate me picking her up) which other doves around won't do.. but I think she's mainly looking for food. I caught her because...
Now my dad thinks she sprained it but we aren’t really sure, her left leg isn’t responding but it looks the same, it doesn’t seem to hurt much since she can move around now just not very effectively, she still eats her food and water and has gone into her sand box, we don’t think it’s broken it...

Hi-
I am trying to rehome two super sweet Silkies. I am super bummed to have to rehome them because they are both so sweet and fluffy! (And my kiddos and I are in love with them!) 😞 I purchased them when they were a little bit older hoping to get two hens as I am not allowed to have a rooster...
