    Review by '' on item 'Australorp'

    I've owned Australorps for years. I love this breed of chicken. They are one of my favorites breeds. Very sweet, get along well with everyone, love being pet and are great layers of large eggs. I will never be without Australorps in my flock.

    Review by '' on item 'Sussex'

    I bought two speckled Sussex two years ago. Out of my 16 chickens, they are definitely one of my favorite breeds. There are very friendly and the first to run up to greet me in the morning. They are not afraid or flighty and tolerate confinement very well (as I do not let my chickens free...

    Need a little help choosing a dog

    I have owned German Shepherd dogs for 31 years. I have never had a problem with them hurting my chickens (or any other animal and that includes baby squirrels, parrots, cockatiels, rabbits, pet rats and other animals). I did get all of my German Shepherds as puppies and taught them not to hurt...

    Fan in coop?

    I have a fan in every one of my coops. I have a total of five coops. I have 21 chickens and not one is afraid of the fans. They just love being cooled off by the cool breeze. I had fans in my coops for over 12 years.....never had one problem. The only problem I ever had was when one of my...

    What happens to your chickens when they get old and stop laying?

    All my chickens live here until they die from natural causes. They give to me and my family excellent eggs for as long as they can so I give back to them by keeping them as my pets from the time they are born till the time they die. I could never kill them nor could my husband.

    Will my chickens use a really huge run?

    In my opinion, your chickens will use every bit of the space. The more room to run and play the happier they are.

    Are these Easter Eggers ?

    Yes they are EEs. At 16 weeks old they both look like pullets.

    5 Month Old Rooster has RED Rash on his legs - What is that?

    Phew, am I relieved. Thank you so much for responding. I've owned chickens for over 12 years and never saw this reddish rash on any other rooster I ever had (and I have 5 roosters right now). Elmer is really sweet and I wouldn't want anything to happen to him. All my chickens and roosters...

    5 Month Old Rooster has RED Rash on his legs - What is that?

    I have two 5 month old buff orpington roosters. Both seem very healthy, are eating well and have good weight. I purchased them along with three other buff orpingtons. They are from the same clutch. All are very healthy except for one thing I noticed within the past week on one of my...

    Rooster or Hen?

    Some of my chickens make weird noises. As long as they are eating, pooping and look healthy I don't worry.

    Rooster or Hen?

    Looks like a pullet to me. Very pretty one too. I'm keeping my fingers crossed it's not a rooster. Good luck. P.S. Under my signature name is a photo of my EE Rooster.

    Can this hen be saved? (Fox attack) (pictures)

    She most likely could have been saved. Here is a photo of my hen who was severely injured (totally ripped apart). I never thought she would live but I wanted to give her a chance. So I cleaned her wound every day, applied neosporin, gave an oral antibiotic and she healed up perfectly. In...

    How loud are roosters?

    Thank goodness our township allows roosters. I'd be lost without mine. I love to hear their cock-a-doodle-dos. I have five roosters. I didn't want that many but that's what happens sometimes when you go to buy chicks and the the sign says "PULLETS ONLY"....I've gotten almost all my roosters...

    Yawning?

    My chicks do this. My parrots also do it from time to time. Both are very heathly and I don't feel it is anything to worry about.

    Pullets and Roos eating the same thing?

    I've been feeding layer food to my mixed flock for 12 years. Feeding layer food didn't affect my roosters at all. One rooster lived to over eight years old and my other rooster is going on nine years old. He is still in great shape (see recent photo of him). Right now I have four cockerels...

    10 week old RIR, swollen eye and drooling thick cloudy HELP!

    Terramycin is definitely one of the best ointments on the market for treating eye infections. I used it for years. I believe Tractor Supply does sell this. Put terramycin in her eye at least twice a day for about 3-5 days. I have used terramycin, with great results, on my horses, dogs...

    What breed and what sex are these two?

    They both look like boys. Very pretty too. I don't know what either breed is but I don't think it is a 100% buff orp. Here are some photos of my buff orps that are about 9 weeks old in the photo. As you can see in the photo, I have two are roosters. I named them Elmer and Henry.
