    Oddest thing happened....

    So about a week ago, my girls were out free ranging the back yard area. All of a sudden, the roo went crazy, honking & cackling & carrying on & the girls scattered. I ran out to see what was going on & when all were calmed down, I realized one was missing,Meredith, one of our black sex link...

    Lost our Henrietta....

    Yesterday my husbands pup killed our broody hen, Henrietta. She was a White Plymouth rock. Poor thing. Pup is gone away now & there will be no other dogs. Period. Im sick about this. My 13yo daugter was the one misfortunate enough to find her. She called me at work in hysterics & I had to leave...

    Adding bantams to flock of LF

    I have a flock of 14 girls & a few young roos that free range most of the day. (2 of those roos soon to be gone). So far, not a single issue. Id like to give the bantam roo that I have a few ladies more his own size. I'M assuming the larger roo will attempt to mate them too? None of them are...

    sex link question.

    So I know a RIR roo & a white rock hen can create red sex link chicks, but what about the opposite? A RIR hen and a white rock roo? Just mutts?

    have not seen this before

    While bathing one of my birds I noticed a couple of dark spots on her toes. Any clues what could be wrong. She is otherwise very healthy.

    Attitude change?

    Do most birds have a change of attitude once they start laying? I kind of remember my older girls being more flighty, not so friendly, but now they all squat & wait to be held, or petted. They enjoy the attention. The younger group, UGH, its a pain to chase them down to grab them for anything...

    Owl swooped in

    this morning & got one of my girls. At least I'm pretty sure it was the owl. They were already out in the yard for the morning. We have had ZERO predator issues & I guess I got too comfortable. It got one of my young 12 week old BSL babies. IM sad..:( Ive hand raised them.

    bantam roo question

    We have a new little bantam rooster we will soon be integrating with our main flock. My question is this....will he actually have any success in trying to mate the full size birds? I plan to get him a few bantam hens of his own but til then, I'm sure he'll have all his roosterly urges. lol

    integration went like a breeze...

    We put all our birds together today & didn't have a single issue. Couldn't have went more smoothly. Previously , our 6 hens & 1 roo (11 months)were penned separately from our 12- 12 week old chicks(10 pullets, 2 young roos). We had let a few of the older girls in to the yard where the younger...
