    Slowly losing hens. Anemia?

    I lost one of my older hens a few weeks ago. We attributed it to old age—she just started slowing down, lost color in her comb, lost interest in food and then stopped roosting until she passed in the night. Well now I have another one showing similar signs, and I don’t think she’s as old as my...

    Favorite Hen Drowned to Death in Pond

    I didn’t quite know where to put this, as it’s more about the death of my sweet hen, Daphne. My chickens tend to drink out of a small pond we have in the front yard. We discourage this heavily and try our best to keep them out of that yard. It was unsuccessful this morning. She had been...

    I don’t know what to do...

    While I was at violin lessons, a hawk flew down and decapitated my chicken. Ivy, the other, hid behind the shed and watched her only sister be killed. We are devistated. I came in to check on her this morning, and she wouldn’t come near me at all. I don’t want to hurt her, and because she is my...

    What killed my chicken? (GRAPHIC PICTURES)

    I found one of my chickens dead yesterday :hit I feel awful because I let them out and then left which I normally never do but I figured my parents were home. I guess they either didn't know I was gone or didn't know they were out. Anyway, I was gone a few hours and came back to lock them up...

    Eating a dead chicken?

    One of my family members wonders if it is okay to eat a dead chicken? Is that okay? Will it cause sickness to us?:p

    Chickens dying suddenly... 3 out of 9 so far. Please advise.

    Good morning everyone, This is long and detailed so please bear with me. We've had chickens for the past three years. We lived in town at first, but were allowed to have them in our yard. We got 4 to start as chicks, they were free range, grew healthy and laid with no issues. When we moved from...

    Found only tweety's wings.

    I am terribly upset from finding pieces of our favorite hen Tweety a couple hours ago. Nothing but her wings are left after an extensive search..she has been m.i.a. for 3 days. A total free range pullet who had a 99.9% fertile egg rate. We have hatched countless offspring from this gentle pet...

    Suddenly found one of my chickens dead :(

    I have no clue as to why my hen would be dead this morning. We had a regular morning. I went out at 6 AM to feed, water and pet my flock. They are well trained (or I am) because they know if they start cackling I'll come to open the coop door and let them graze in the yard. Little Bo Peep was...
