Our chicken Honey died last night. My poor children were so upset. She had been sick for some time and the Vet suspected she had an issue with her liver so we did the best we could for her until her time came. It was so sad. My son was so stoic, he ran right over and picked her up and held...

Is it safe for me to eat eggs layed by my hens who are eating medicated chick feed? I have heard many conflicting answers. I have 9 hens who are offered layer feed. I have 7 chicks eating med. feed. Now you all know, the big girls want in on that stuff---they eat anything. Should I be...

My rabbit is due to have bunnies within the next week. Her hutch has two separate sections. The smaller side is enclosed but has a door to the outside and access to the main hutch. I was wondering if she needs a nest box or will the smaller enclosed side of the hutch be sufficient? It looks...

This morning I looked out at my newly built chicken coop to find a hawk sitting on top of the pen. Thankfully my week old babies are still in the house in a brooder. I'm sure the hawk was wondering when the new TAKE OUT RESTAURUANT WAS OPENING!!!!!!! I'm petrified to put them outside now.

My brooder is a box and it had a staple sticking out and my silkie cut her foot. It's bleeding, what can I do?
