    Slowness, loa, in 9 mo BO pullet

    Maybe not a true emergency but the first unusual episode for us. 9 month old BO pullet, laid a fine egg today. Acting sleepy, letting someone pick her up without a fuss (unusual) diarrhea, not wanting to eat, but yes, drinking water, blinking slowly, movements are slow and a little clumsy. Any...

    Is this a good price?..link to Craigslist Corn

    We haven't bought any corn yet. Also, is 'shelled' the same as 'cracked' that I read about here? Thanks. http://raleigh.craigslist.org/grd/911712253.html

    Is a RIR w' white legs still a RIR?

    All the photos I have seen here show RIR with yellow legs. WE were given a hen and told it was a RIR (and it does look like one) but it has white legs. Thoughts? Also, she was supposedly laying and hasn't since we brought her home about 2 weeks ago. Thoughts on that one? How can you tell if...

Can 3 month old pullets pick up on this 'distant danger'? They are protected anyway. What else could have been...

    Is a window latch racoon proof?

    Our latches on the outside run and inside hutch door are like these. Easy to operate for us, but too easy for racoons?

    Owls as predators?

    We have an owl that's been hanging out in the woods and 'hooting' at night. Tuesday, as I pulled the curtains closed on our window it flew right by me! It was pretty, and huge....pretty huge! Our chickens are closed in with wire on all sides and latches on the hutch doors. We didn't hear him...

    Contagious crowing?

    Well, one of our 10 week old Araucana girls is crowing every morning, 6-7 times. I know some hens crow (read that here). I know spurs don't show up til 8-9 months (read that here). Question 1: Suppose the one crowing IS a male, if others were male, would they want to start crowing at the same...

    Leftover white rice

    We had some leftover white rice last night so I gave some to the girls...They LOVED it. It was sticking to my hands a little so I got pecked at. It was only about 1/4 cup for 5 girls. Since its cheap and easy, is it OK a few times a week? It is on the treat chart. tia Also, is brown Ok as well?
