So one of my girls (a frizzle bantam Sussex about 1.5 years old) has always been pretty vocal and she likes to yell at you if she wants something. However the last couple weeks she's been screaming for no reason, often very early in the morning (although she'll do it at all hours of the day)...

So unfortunately one of my beautiful girls died recently protecting my little girls when my neighbours dog broke into the yard and attacked them. I dont want to minimise her death because I loved her but I have considered getting another chicken. Unfortunately I am only able to have 6 chickens...

So I've had this australorp for a little over six months. I suspected she was older when I bought her, and she hasn't laid properly the entire time I've owned her. She has occasionally laid soft eggs every month or so, and still likes to sit in the box. Today I found what I suspect after some...

So I have 6 chickens, 5 of which lay. At the moment two are broody and one looks like she might go broody. The problem is because I don't have segregated boxes (just two long boxes) the girls like to huddle in or steal each others spots when laying. Since one of my broody girls tends to be...

So I got this chicken a couple of months ago, I'm not sure exactly how old they are but they started moulting when I got them so I'm assuming theyre at least a year old. Because they were moulting they hadn't layed any eggs yet. Now that their moult is over they have started to lay this week...

So I'm picking up some new girls to add to my existing flock of three. I'm aware of quarantining so I will be doing that first before introducing them. Currently my girls have a decent size fenced in area but I want to transition them to having full reign of the backyard. I know its good to...

So I've had my current lot of chickens for about two months now. One of them (a light Sussex) is around 18 weeks and while she was originally not a fan of contact has become very accustomed to cuddles. She often jumps up in my lap for pats and will stay there for a long time; I've had her sit up...

So I got this little frizzle about 5 weeks ago, they're now about 8 weeks old. They started to develop a bit of a comb and wattle around 6-7 weeks. Its still quite pink (not red) and doesn't seem to have gotten any bigger since then. They haven't started crowing but I'm a little worried they...
