    First time w/ Broody Hen: Lots of questions

    Hi guys, So this is the first time I've had a broody hen. She is in the laying box all day and madly clucks at us if we disturb her. I'm excited, but I have lots of questions. 1. Is it OK to put chicks under her? Will she adopt them? What do you need to do that? We can't put fertilized eggs...

    Fun Chicken Coop Graphic Design Project

    My friend and I had to make an analogy for a cell. I'm a chicken lover (like all of us), so of course, I had the idea to compare a cell (as in a science-y, animal cell) to a chicken coop. We made a sketch, then used Adobe InDesign to create the image. I suppose this goes in the category of...

    Sick Hen, Friend Hen Helping Her

    I am sorry I missed that. The antibioics were pink and green, each half. I think she got sour crop after recovering a bit. I'll be more careful about givin anti biotics in the future, I just didn't want to lose another hen, especially Suzy. (We've lost three in the last 2 years).

    Sick Hen, Friend Hen Helping Her

    Thank you all for the help. Suzy B is back with the flock -- well, the three other birds. I think the antibiotics gave her sour crop, and we have been giving yogurt and acv in the water. She isn't laying eggs again, yet, but she does eat and peck around on her own.
