How much can u cut off the wings ? and where would I cut ? my chickens seem to be able to fly up to 4 ft and I don't want them to be able and jump over our yard fence
I noticed the breed is too stupid lol, I have one hen and wow when its time to put them in all the other chickens would head straight into the coop except for the hamburg she keeps running around like she does not know where to go
I have 3 RIR that been laying since mid Feb went broody for a while and now they back to laying regularly but I found this today
keep in mine I have 3 sebrights that are 8 weeks old can they be laying already ?
would a year old rooster taste good still ? I cant take my big rooster anymore he is getting in everyone's way picking on the little chicks trying to mount the meat birds and running after my older hens
he will see the pot soon only if he will still taste yummy
I have 3 hens all 3 went brood in the same week so when two of them went out to the run I moved the eggs under the one that was laying the longest and the one that also didn't move since the went brood
now the two that have no eggs in the nest still lay in there all the time ( wont even get...

I took some pictures today the rooster loves to pose for the camera as you can see
This one chicken always avoids being around the rooster he would chase her around all day for some reason
I Dont know what should I do with her ? I seen her a couple of times laying on the eggs but when she gets out the coop I snatch them quick
once she almost picked on my hand when I tried to push her off my breakfast
so what should I do ? keep in mind I just got 29 chicks from mcmurray
I got a call at 8:30am on Easter morning from the post office : Hello your baby chicks are here come get them
