WE used to have 3 chochins hens and now we are down to 1. I believe that is started when someone dumped a male chinese goose in the canal and he found his way to the only female that survived, (I live in Miami) and there are a lot of 2 legged predators around. After a few weeks I saw the geese...

my geese are afraid of the broom. If you walk with it they run to the other side of the yard or jump into the canal. don't get rid of them.

Sorry to get off the post but I love talking about this trip We went to hollow bay, and the bears were right there. We ate our lunch on the stream with our group watching a mother a her cub fish for salmon. Unbeliveable, unless you have been there and seen it in person you can't appreciate...

We were just there in your neighborhood, what a place. Beautiful, the scenery, the wildlife and even the people were very freindly. I live in Miami and lets just say that the people are very different. We took a tour to a river and got out and walked wtih the biggest brown bear they looked...

Just found that our girls decided to start laying under our banana trees. So as of tomorrow I'm going to put them in jail for the day. Will this get them back to laying in the box? I just figured that if I kept them in the coop for the day and they would remember to lay in their box like...

Well here's what happened today. She finally got up and started to walk around the yard a bit. When the sun was setting and the temp came down. She even ate a little bit and drank some water. She also came running (not as fast as usual) when I called the chickens for some bread, and she ate...

she moved to a new spot before i left the house and now he's back into her raised cubbie hole, sitting facing the wall of the house.

UPDATE: after reading many suggestions on other posts about sugar water i decided to go out there and give her some (except i used honey). she is still facing the wall, not panting, making any noise or anything else BUT behind her i found an EGG!!!!! does THIS mean anything? i have to...

glad to hear that the vet helped, although the staff doesn't seem to be all that into helping animals, huh? talk about being discriminatory. hope she wakes up feeling better and that all ends up well!
