I put together a chicken tractor to put the chickens to work on the garden bed area and documented the process. There are bookmarks in the video and the video description if you want to see the process and jump around. I used just scrap wood I had at the house and pvc along with the fencing...

Our cat got into the chick room and killed one of our baby chicks. Her little sister escaped and hid. We found her and she is behaving like a normal chick. Eating, drinking, poking around but she constantly makes this peeping sound(see below video). Is this an injured sound or lonely sound or...

Long story short we've got a broody hen that we're going to try to give some chicks to. Our main nest box is not a good place for chicks. The fact that the other hens use it aside, it's got a massive lip and perch that leads to the coop then there's a ramp that lead to the run where the food and...

Ok not chicken scratch, but wood haha. I tried to record each step, but time and logistics got away from me. If you want to skip to the final walk through recorded a couple weeks ago skip to about the 11minute mark :)

This is the most aggravating thing. They all used the next box(best nest box for those wondering, works great) about 95% of the time with only the occasional oopsy egg. It's winter so they've slowed down and some have been through a molt, well a couple that have started to lay again now just...

I noticed my sweet Olive's beak was chipped today. I know they supposedly grow back overtime, but it just looks so bad. What do you guys think? I could really use a second opinion.

I've been working on getting a coop/run built that is nearly complete(been documenting most of it and will make a whole article on the process once it's finished), but all but one of my chicks are nearly all feathered out and have been wanting to get out of the brooder....or they think they...

If you listen you can hear the rapid fire chirping. The rest of the chirping is just because I startled them. She's been doing this nearly constantly for 2 days and she's the only one doing this. She seems to be eating and drinking normally and there's not pasty butt. I don't know what to do...

We got chicks for the first time at our local general store The breeds are Buff Orpington, Cuckoo Maran, and Ameraucana. I'm about 3/4 done with the coop and have been documenting it as I go. I'll have that fully up in video and text/picture format once I'm finished completely. For now a short...

Hi there! As you may have guessed from the title I'm wondering about quiet breeds. I've been doing a lot of research on here and elsewhere and have sort of an idea of what to order(I'm ordering from Meyer), but I'm still unsure. I live in a small town, it's not rural but it's sort of a supply...

Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? Very new, not getting any until the spring How many chickens do you have right now? None but I'm planning on getting layers and meat birds What breeds do you have? I'm planning on two Easter eggers, but I'm still trying to figure out...
