    Dog with UTI?

    I know this site is primarily for foul, but you have always given me a lot of help! Recently my Doberman turned 10 and we let my motherinlaw watch her for a few days when we had to attent a funeral out of state. When we got back her eye was very red & I took her to the vet. Well $280 dollars...

    Dog Attack :(

    It has been along time since I had to post, and we have had good luck the past year. But the last 3 or 4 nights something has been getting the gate open to our chicken pen, but not hurting the chickens. I locked it with karabiner last night so the latch couldn’t open, but this morning at...

    Frostbite hat

    It's that time of year. Our chickens refuse to stay inside! 20 degrees here today and overcast & windy. Yesterday 1 of the roosters started getting frostbite on his comb and wattles. I treated everyone with a liberal layer of Vaseline. But today Mr. Violet still didn't look right, so I...

    Large Run Plans

    Does anyone have any large run plans, walk in, and fully enclosed? My husband doesn't want a pertinent structure, but it could be hard to build the walls amd assemble with no driven posts. What are your thoughts?

    Pullet picking out her own tail feathers

    Chicken Popper :(

    Hi all, happy forth of July! So my daughters were throwing "poppers" you know the ones wrapped in paper with the little rock things in them. One of the cockerels got hold of an unpopped one and ate it. I tried to catch him before he swallowed it, but he was too quick. Anyone else ever see this?

    Crowing Youngster

    Hi all, I have a situation to run by everyone. I have 4 pullets about 3.5 months old, and 9 others who are speckled Sussex and 2 months old. No older chickens. Last week one of the speckled Sussex crowed at us, but we couldn't figure out which one, as it only crows when we have our backs...

    Easter Egger Boy or Girl

    Hi all, been reading threads here for months, but this is my first post. Bought my daughter some Easter eggers about 10 weeks ago. 2 babies were from a hatchery and supposed to be pullers. Their colour was pretty different. One was smaller with red fuz. As they grew the red one took way longer...
