Hi everyone, We have some super cold weather coming up and I was wondering if I should still let my chickens out into the run or keep them in their coop? I have some food in there right now, but I would also add water and some scratch to keep them warm. What do y’all think? Thanks 🐓

80 Degrees with a breeze

I’ve been thinking about some things. I think bullying has gotten a bit better, but I am just confused because I’m now wondering if all the hens are going after the victim. Later today when I get back home, I’m going to just sit in the run and observe them and I will let you guys now.

Okay. Are there certain places that are good to look when rehoming a chicken? Also, I’m just thinking that it might be a good idea to rehome the victim? If I rehome her it will she be bullied wherever she goes next? She is very docile, so I am worried about that. I would like to keep her because...

She was separated for about a week. The flock seemed fine with out her but the baby was much less anxious. I think it is not as bad as it was. I want to eventually get some chicks so we’ll have new egg layers, but we are only allowed a maximum of six and I would prefer to keep our Flock at...

I don’t know who I should re-home as their are pros and cons to each.

Okay thanks. The hen who bullies her the most is the bottom of the pecking order. She is pecked at a little bit by the flock leader but not as bad.

Hi there. I’ve been having a problem with bullying for a long time now. I’ve made multiple threads about it, but I still don’t know what to do. We have enough space by the guidelines and a bit more in the run. The bullying is mainly one hen going after a younger hen. I’ve tried separating the...

Hey everybody. I decided I’m going to separate my bully hen for a little while. My initial plan was to have a dog crate in the run and have her in it during the day away from the others and at night put her in the coop in a smaller box. I would cart that on for 5-7 days. I am just questioning...

I tried to put a peeper on the mean hen, but I was having a tough time getting it on. What are your thoughts on rehoming one of the chickens either the bully or the bullied?

She is 10 months. She started laying around 4 months ago.

One waterer, and two feeders

Hello everybody. I have made multiple threads like this before but haven’t really gotten any answer I wanted so this time I am going to be a bit more specific. We have five hens. Back in July we decided to get two chicks to add to our flock. Sometime in October one of our two chicks was killed...

So… how do I give her a pill😅 also, should I break it in half? It’s quite large

Thank you!

She is really confusing me. She seemed very slow this morning. She was laying down napping for probably an hour. I gave her a boiled egg and some sugar water and boy did she have an appetite. I am about to leave to go to the store to buy the calcium. I don’t know if she is nearing the end of her...

She is definitely not as lethargic but she is just slow. We do not have any calcium pills. Should I buy them?

The is morning she is lethargic again. I will give her some more nutridrench water. And I will start giving her that calcium tablet.

She seems quite a bit better. I’m wondering if she was dehydrated and after having some Nutri drench mixed in water she is acting a lot perkier and better.
