Hello!
My daugther has 3 females and 1 male call duck. The male is seperate for now, outside the tractor, so the girls will be not missing head feathers for the county fair in a few weeks.
My issue now is one of the females is jumping on the other girls and ripping their head feathers out...

Hello!
My daughters hen has had a swollen toe for a couple weeks or so. If poked with a pin puss would drain expect wear the mass was(on the under side of the toe) and it kept getting bigger. So tonight I cut it open and removed a marble size mass, which reminds me off scrambled eggs in...
Looking to purchase an old english game hen, if possible this variety: blue silver duckwing. My daughter's OEG hen was killed by a hawk on Saturday. I am looking to get her a new showmanship bird for Christmas now. We live in Michigan and would like to pick up.
A very sad day at our house today. My daughter's very first bantam hen we bought for her 4 years ago was taken away by a hawk this morning. I feel terrible, I went out to check on one of her sick laying hens, which is doing better, (she doesn't like to dispose of them if they die) and let the...

An early Christmas present for my 3 daughters, tickets to a Taylor Swift concert!
Taylor put on an excellent show and I would go and see another one in a heartbeat!

Ok we cracked open the eggs on day 23. Very proud of DD, she doesn't like this sort of thing either but, they are her eggs so we needed to know why they didn't hatch.
We got 7 chicks that are healthy and doing great! They hatched on day 20.
Out of the 10 lavender ameraucana eggs that didn't...

this is the first time in a long time that we have been gone and not home before dark.
It was probably a 1/2 hour after dark and we pull up with the van to shut the coop doors. In the first coop my daughters find 2 hens from the other coop in there. (that has never happened in 6 months).
So I...
Ok, I would of never believed it if I hadn't seen it myself. My daughters BO caught and killed a mouse. She was playing/eating the mouse while the other hens were chasing her trying to get the mouse too.
It was quite comical.
