    Reintroducing pecked chicks

    I know what you mean; this is my first flock too. We ended up having to put down the one who began it all. She eventually started to peck at the others who were the same breed as her. I asked the people we purchased them from, and they told me that sometimes you get a chicken who just goes a...

    Reintroducing pecked chicks

    Actually it did--although it didn't fully solve the problem. I did a combination of blu-kote on ALL the birds, then only let them be together to sleep for a number of nights. Then, I started taking them outside in pairs--one healthy bird and one injured bird. Really I think that was the...

    Eight hens/mixed breeds/almost ready to lay

    Wow; your girls are beautiful! Your coop looks absolutely lovely too--lots of room for them. I have a number of people who have been interested in them, and the majority of them are closer to us. We are considering everyone who has asked as we want to decide on the best home for them. Staten...

    Southeast Pennsylvania eight chickens need rehoming

    Hi Ali, Yes, we do still need a home for our chickens, although we have had a number of offers that we're trying to work through. It's tough to decide who would be the best fit for our girls! I LOVE that you're vegetarians-haha-definitely puts our minds at ease about them becoming someone's...

    Southeast Pennsylvania eight chickens need rehoming

    Just as my hens are about ready to lay we have had a series of disasters that are forcing me to give them up. I live in Avondale, Pennsylvania--on the border of Hockessin, Delaware right next to Kennett Square. Any bedding and food will go along with them, although a donation wouldn't be...

    I have two white silkies that need rehoming. I am in Avondale, PA. I would need to give you both, however; they are very attached to each other.

    Laying hens WANTED near Houston Texas

    Too bad you're so far away! I have eight hens that I have to give up, mixed flock, all friendly and healthy and about two weeks away from beginning to lay. We wanted someone to take them who would love them, not cook them!

    My neice/godchild is making me angry

    Well, it sounds like you're on the right track, and figuring out how to set healthy boundaries. It takes time, and practice, and a strong backbone, and the help of Jesus--seriously. You'll get there. What is that they say? The first step is to recognize the problem. You've already done...

    A poll for the women

    This is so funny. I love those flush top toilets--haven't seen one since I spent time in Europe. As to how you see the person in the stall next to you: We also have stall doors and walls, but there is a gap where the door is hinged, and you can also see underneath. Maybe the person...

    Coop now a fort

    That's so funny. :) Good for you--chickens you can have anytime, but the kids are only around for a little while; enjoy them while you can!

    My neice/godchild is making me angry

    Quite frankly, that seems like the common attitude for most people these days. While I think we all need to be kind to one another in whatever way we can, I don't think you need to be a doormat. If you know that it's going to cause an issue for you to speak up then don't, and as for removing...
