    Pullet attacked by fox and saved by cockerel

    So the saga continues unfortunately. There now is a much larger fox in the neighborhood. Got three more of my birds while I was away on a camping trip.. So upsetting. I left the coop doors open so they could get out in this heat we have up here and I knew it was a huge risk. Lucky I didn’t lose...

    How to tell what chicken laid which egg

    Ok I have to know and can’t be the only one who has no clue as to which one of my hens and pullets laid which eggs. How do some of you know exactly which hen laid a certain egg?? Tips or advice would be greatly appreciated!

    Pullet attacked by fox and saved by cockerel

    I understand that for sure I am partial to foxes but anything else I’ve had no issue. However if that fox found its way back somehow that would probably change things but i suppose you are right that taking that chance is putting my flock at risk once again when it could have been dealt with...

    My Journey Dealing with the Non-Native Red Foxes in California

    Using these types of traps, unfortunately, is illegal in California. The law is stated in a way that pretty much eliminates all other options other then cage traps

    Confusing predation problem.

    Highly unlikely it’s the Pyranese, these are guardian dogs and it’s in their bloodline to protect livestock. I have a pyr myself and I didn’t even have to train her to guard my flock, she just knew it was her duty and she does that job beautifully. She has never showed any interest in my flock...

    My Journey Dealing with the Non-Native Red Foxes in California

    I live in Bonny Doon and the foxes have been a terrible nuisance this year. They have significantly increased in numbers since last year. We have been live trapping and have gotten 2 so far. We lost a couple hens and one lost her eye because of an attack. It seems like something is always there...

    Pullet attacked by fox and saved by cockerel

    UPDATE: so we ended up live trapping the fox that was persistently at our coup every night and were able to successfully(for the moment) relocate the fox, and this was done after a whole lot of research and consulting with wildlife experts on doing this properly to ensure its survival in a new...

    Pullet attacked by fox and saved by cockerel

    So I wasn’t sure which feed to post this to but I guess because it includes a predator I went with this. I have a pullet that was attacked 3 nights ago by I fox. I’m at first, I thought it had got her because she was gone and there was a significant pile of feathers left behind. Lo and behold...

    Reply to review by 'Kkoleckar' on item 'Golden-300'

    Question…I got two that were supposed to be golden 300s however one is all black with this beetle green sheen to her. Is this a color variant of this breed?

    Wrinkled egg

    Why did my chicken lay this egg that looks like this? Should I be concerned? I have no clue which ones lay which eggs because they are from chickens I recieved from a someone who was, and I quote, “done with the whole chicken thing”. I’ve made several attempts at asking her the age of the...

    Very quiet chicks

    So about a week ago +\- a day or two I picked up 2 gold laced Wyandottechicks. They seem to be thriving beautifully, seem very healthy, normal energy level, eating and drinking fine and doing normal chick “things” except for making any chirping, peeping, etc. noises. Like….hardly ever. They are...
