    Two legged Predators in the country.

    Thankfully my brood is temporarily at my daughter's while I heal from recent surgery. The other morning I found my locked coop wide open. No animal could have taken the lock off the hasp. Things are obviously getting desperate in our rural area. I live 20 miles from the closest town. A friend...

    Is my dog wanting to protect or murder?

    My Weimaraner, a bird dog, thinks they are chew toys. Everything he catches, rabbits, pocket gophers, mice. He plays with them until dead. He almost scared one of the hens to death, puncturing one of her wings. Still working on training,still a pup.

    Crowing at the moon

    Anyone else have Roos baying at the moon? The past two nights have proven to be very interesting. The extremely bright full moon has both my BA and EE Roos crowing all night. Except for a couple of short periods when it was hidden from their view by the trees and cloud cover. Yes, they are...

    Naughty Birdies

    They are entertaining to say the least. One of my BA hens grabbed the snack bag out of my hand this morning and the chase was on. She outran 18 siblings and me. We all caught her when the munchies got the best of her.
