The rooster bunks in the coop I’m wanting to tear down. Both runs are separate but all have access to either run/coop during the day (they free range). The coop I’m wanting to keep (the bigger one) has a few girls sleeping in it but their rooster is now gone. I think I’m going to tear down the...

I have two coops side by side. My flocks have dwindled in numbers (coyotes, hawks, etc) so I’m wondering if I tear one of the coops down will the chickens that normally roost in there instinctively go to the other coop? There’s only one rooster so that shouldn’t be a problem. It’s just that the...

I’ve had success with the tomcat boxes but now that doesn’t seem to be working. I need help. I need something for my coop. I’m going to get different feeders so there’s less waste but I need something that will kill mice/rats. And if you have a better idea for feeders than pvc let me know. Thanks!

Are they buff’s?

Can anyone tell me what breed the two ducks are that are not Pekin? Contrary to TS these look totally different than the big Pekin on the far right.

I bought the Pekin ducks from tractor supply as chicks. The older they’re getting the more two of them look different. The larger one (he was older the day I bought them) is white with a yellow bill. The other two look more brownish and their bill isn’t yellow like his. I feed all the the same...

And yes it’s a bantam

The silver laced sebright may be correct. I got a couple of golden sebrights from tractor supply a month or so ago so that may be it.

Ok good people, please come to the rescue once again. I need to know what kind of bantam this is. The light is coming from a brooder lamp so please excuse but he/she is mainly black and yellow, from tractor supply.

I recently hatched 12 eggs and they came from: rooster (buff Orpington and Plymouth based rock)..hen (buff Orpington, barred rock, golden comet). I have two that are almost white. Not blonde but white. Which breed would have caused this? Just asking out of curiosity, trying to learn as much as...

Thank you so much!

You guys are awesome! One more… There are two of these, same purchase. 4 bantams total

How about a little more help? The bantam on the right. Same purchase…

yes it has feathered feet. I was hoping it was a Mille Fleur. I had three that were awesome, little Michael Jordans, but unfortunately got taken out during the Hawk scourge of ‘23.

It came from tractor supply straight run, multiple breeds in one tub. It’s very docile and somewhat of a loner…If that helps. I realize it’s under the brooder lamp light so it may be a little difficult to see the real colors. Thanks.

Raccoons, hawks, that kind of thing. They’re about 9 months old. I’ve lost chickens before while they’ve been out free ranging but never 3 in one day. And it’s been a few months since I’ve lost one

I have 3 that are basically inseparable. All 3 have gone missing in the past 2 days. If one has become broody and nesting privately somewhere is it possible that the other 2 would hang around as well? I know it’s possible that all 3 fell to predation but on the same day I think would be...

I had a vet recommended liquamycin 1/2 cc and it worked. They originally recommended something else but I couldn’t find it. I’ve used it 2 or 3 times.

I have a young cockerel that has roosted with his brothers, sisters and mama since they were old enough to get on the roost (along with his aunts and papa). The past few nights I’ve noticed he’s bunked up in the other coop with the other flock and he’s sleeping on the ground. The first night I...

This is an excellent video. Thank you so much. I just had a hen hatch some eggs so this has been very educational.
