    Chicken oddities: what’s something you wish your chicken/chickens didn’t do?

    I already posted but have just figured out which of my hens is CROWING....my Black Australorp has decided to try her hand at crowing and it's a terrible sound - somewhere between a car horn and a broken squeaky toy. I told her there's no roosters allowed but she seems to think its her job now...

    Chicken oddities: what’s something you wish your chicken/chickens didn’t do?

    I wish my Salmon Faverolles would stop letting the others pull out her feathers. She's got a Friar Tuck look going on... and she's never grown her beard in.

    Sudden Chicken Death

    In case anyone was watching this thread for updates; the necropsy results revealed that my Margie died of a liver hemorrhage consistent with hemorrhagic liver syndrome (fatty liver hemorrhagic syndrome). I did a little reading and am wondering if it's possible for a hen who is not overweight...

    Sudden Chicken Death

    My husband called me at work today saying one of my birds (~2.5 y/o Rhode island Red) was laying on the run floor with her face on the ground, mouth open, very floppy. He picked her up and she startled a little bit and she pooped on him, it was very watery. He said her neck was not supporting...

    Any Gamers Here?

    My hubby recently built me a gaming PC using an old tower from the 90s. Such nostalgia even though I'm playing mostly Baldur's Gate 3, which is hard but very engrossing. I can't put it down even when my characters get TPK'd multiple times a session LOL We do have a bunch of Nintendo 64 games on...

No bugs as pets currently but I am always on the lookout for my "garden friends" mostly jumping spiders and mantids. We get a lot of butterflies and big jade beetles and...

    Any Gamers Here?

    Stardew Valley! Yeah! It's one of my favorites. Fields of Mistria is very similar, with a bit more of an anime/fantasy vibe.

    Anyone playing Fields of Mistria? It's a new farming/life sim on Steam by NPC Studios. It's still in early access development, but it's pretty fun and a cute cozy game for the coming fall/winter months. Character design is great and interactions with the characters is really well fleshed out.

    Neighbors complaining about flies

    I am having a similar issue with my neighbors, I have four birds that we only allow to free-range about once a week. We use sand as the run medium and hemp shavings + pine mulch for the bedding. Bedding gets cleaned every week, run gets cleaned every day, usually twice or three times because...
