Just read the post of derp replying to the funny HAI pic, found it very funny

Nambroth, Im 16 and I can assure you facebook is covered with comic strips involving a character called 'Derp', its just something in modern society on the internet, if you type derp cartoons on google images you will see (although they do contain rude language in some). the word isn't offensive...

aww love derp, I just caught up, so sorry about coho. shame derp and moa didnt get to sort out their differences properly, would have been cool to have derp in charge. I have a polish like derp, like when shes scared she runs in small circles at first with her head staying in the same spot, then...

Nambroth im so sorry for your loss, I rescue ex-battery hens as well as breeding rare breed chickens. the reason they are marketed as pets is because they are bred to take confinement well but also be very placid. I have only had 4 ex-bats die of old age with me but even then its because they...

lovin the stories, keep 'em coming

word of advice, dont show weakness :) teens, like me will pick up on it. and try not to be too strict, look up the latest stuff to find common ground, then they listen more. if you have common ground they will be less rebelious. should be fun though :) good luck

Me four!!!! and im 15 :P

wow thats incredible art, well done

Amen aswell, very true, thankyou again nambroth for sharing with us

I tend to use a collective name for my chickens, (they all have names) but I tend to call them buboo :)

loving the updates, if you dont want to upset the pecking order build moa a small run inside the big one so she keeps her spot as top hen because no one forgets her but she cant chase baron, it will also mean she will get use to having him about so when shes release she wont be as fussed by him...

Fudlady, maybe he needs stimulus to get him motivated, bring one of the calmer girls in and pop her on the other side of the room with some corn, then that might motivate him to start working those legs and get over to her. after all, hes a man, As one I know what they think when they see a...

Im keeping my fingers crossed for him, wishing him a speedy recovery, I just got back from a holiday in greece rushed back to the runs (as you do) and looked in and was amazed to see they had changed so much and that they were all there, when I go away my neighbor looks after them as she used to...

Nambroth in case your worried he will drown, dont worry he wont, my wyandottes head down to my stream for the bugs and swim across even when its in flood, they are now strong swimmers and swim against the current. my frizzle rooster who's feathers are not water proof like the others tried it...

you can probably get the life vests online

This is just a though but I have seen this one veterinary programs and it really does work very well. chicken physio. you buy a chicken life jacket, put it on then put him in the water, hold him so he cant actually swim around but so he paddles on the spot, it should help him learn to use his...

hope he gets better, maybe the urge to breed will help him get better

oh noo, im soo sorr to hear this, i would be devistated if my flock got mareks

I'm guessing he's been jumping up and down of something too high up

If your perch is too high he could be damaging his growing bones etc as he jumps down, trousers may have got away with it as he was full grown, I had an large ex bat who got bumble foot from jumping down from a fence onto concrete too many times so she would hop about. Large breeds are prone to...
