Hey what is everybody's most broody hen? I want a broody hen, but I want to know what the best kinds are first.

I have an over red hen, that always manages to get her saddle off. Because of this, she has developed a large sunburn all across her back. I have found that if you put coconut oil on the burn daily, then it will go away. Not to mention it softens the skin, making it easier for the quill to come...

Hi everybody! Missouri doesn't have a current poultry thread, so I thought that I would start one. So have fun, communicate, and sell/trade those birds.

Last Saturday, i bought 11 chicks, and by the time that they were 6 days old 6 had died. It wasn't from dehydration or hunger, i saw all of them eating and drinking. I'm not sure how this happened but they just died. I have never had this happen before. I even had 48 chicks delivered from cackle...

Hi. I'm looking to build a temporary coop where I can house a trio of birds for a week or maybe two. This will only be a temporary breeding pen to place sets of chickens. Does anybody have any good ideas of how I should go about this. Feel free to post pics of just your thoughts. Thanks
