    What's the best?

    I had 2 girls that decided to sit, I let them do their thing. I've never experienced the process. I was very excited! One hen had 9 eggs, all were good eggs, but she decided after 5 babies she didn't care about the unborn. They were even peeping in their shells. I tried to save them, but iOnly...

    Rescue hen has trouble eating-clipped beak

    I have a crooked beak and she was having a hard time also, but I put her food into a deep dish bowl so she would stick her in it and get some food, so far it seems to work just fine. Good Luck!

    My roosters wing might be broken.

    Something got into my coop once before leaving one my girls with a broken wing, I trimed the feathers back as far as I could so it didn't drag, and it eventually healed back the way it should. You can tell when she tries to fly it's not normal but she gets around just fine

    dog killed 15 hens and one is left with dog 2 dog bites. I have baytril. but not sure what to use.

    I understand how you feel about putting her down...I had to do that this morning with one of mine, it broke my heart but I knew it was the right thing to do I hate it that the dogs killed your flock, I think I would have killed the dogs if I caught them. I wish you the best

    Fox took whole flock in under a week

    After a raccoon got in my coop, I read up and educated myself on everything to do so it never happened again. I added a chain link fence around our chicken wire, and took chain link fence and wired it to the coop and buried it around my entire coop. I took metal roofing around the wood of our...

    dead chicken in my pen only missing its head

    Skunk's or Racoon's are usually the ones that only eat the head. I've had a coon that got in my coop and got two of my girls and I set my trap for several weeks and caught 8 coons and 2 skunks. When you trap them make sure you trap is secured to the ground or a tree. A can of tuna with holes...

    No I'm not feeding oyster shells separate, it's included in her laying crumble and I've never had this problem in any of my girls since they've started laying. I guess I'll add a separate feeder of this to make sure I've also added a deep bowl so she will get more food Lash egg huh? I did...
