I have this rooster (1 year old) and he has lately been stumbling like a drunk. I noticed this yesterday when I went to give my chickens water and saw him just lounging on the floor laying on one side. He seemed fine, like he wasn’t looking sad or depressed, he was fully aware just looking...
My rooster Mac is close to crazy. I go in to the run and he attacks me and after a while, he stops. He is really dominant in the flock and I want to make him more nice and docile rooster, even if it is by a bit. How can I do that?
My 1 year and 3 month old roosters all sing, except for one, Caramello. I had previously asked this question about 4-5 months ago I think, and the tip answer was that he was a late bloomer, but he is over one year old and he still doesn’t crow. And his crest was decently sized but it seems as if...
I have 2 one month old chicks who are ready to be in the flock, but I wanted to get them used to the 8 month old hens. I brought one of the hens inside the house to get familiar with the two chicks. I think it’s nórmale for the hen to be a bit cautious about seeing new chickens and for her to...
Hi again, I have previously asked this question before, but I could not get any clear pictures of these chicks. So I now have some clearer pictures and I hope I can get an answer as to what breed these two chicks are.
I have recently bought 2 new editions to the flock and they are about 1 month I believe. The black and white chicken I believe is a Plymouth Rock Chicken, but the whiter one Im not to sure. Sorry for the quality, these chicks are super hyper.
I know it’s spring and hormones in my little roosters are bouncing up and down, lately they have been ripping of a large number of feathers off the heads of my hens but not as much as the hen in the pictures. To me her head looks swollen, what should I do to help my hens from losing a large...
I have seen this thing called nuggs, it’s like chicken nuggets but made of plants. Anyone have thoughts of this? I just think it’s kind of cool and funny.
My three roosters used to have perfectly red combs, but lately their combs have been changing colors. The rooster with the most black and grey comb is Mac, the rooster with the funny looking comb is Plumita, and the rooster with the least color change is Caramelo. I’m thinking the change was...
This is my new member of my flock, an Ayam Cemani, but recently his right eye had been closed and his left eye wide open and it has been like that for about 3 days. So, I am wondering if he hurt his eye or an infection or something. What could I do or will it heal naturally?
sorry one of the...
I have 8 2 month old chickens and 1 one 1/2 month ago of chicken, and I have a 9-10 month old hen that is all by herself that has more than enough room for herself. I was wondering if I could put maybe 3-4 of the chickens with the hen that I’d all by herself, I think we can’t, but my family is...
How could I keep my hen warm during these cold times. My hen is all by herself isolated from the others because all the roosters were attacking her so we made a coop just for her to be in. The coop is really spacious for one hen so what could I do to keep her warm?
Sorry I am posting this for a second time but I really want to suggestions on what to do for my chick. What happened to her and/or what can I do to help her?
My little chick Light was fine in the morning and when I came to check in all of the chickens, I saw her running around like normal, but she had a huge red bloody spot on her head. What might have happened to her and what can I do to help it?
I do not know where to ask this question but here (maybe there should be a forum called Chicken Combs or something...) I was wondering what kind of comb my rooster has.
Umm, since this forum is for stories, this rooster when he was around 4-5 weeks old he loves cream cheese bagels. One day I...
It’s not like I want my roosters to be fighting but I was wondering why my three roosters are not fighting yet. Are they supposed to? Two were raised together and are 9 months old. The other is the most dominant and is 10 months old. They all sleep very close to each other on the top of their...
My rooster, Caramelo, is not crowing even though his “brother”, Mac, is the same age and he is crowing. Mac and Caramelo are both 8 months old. He doesn’t even want to mount any hens, he runs away from most of the chickens (even the 10 week old chicks). But, he is very sweet, he doesn’t attack...
