    Any guesses what got this started? Chickens are loud 😆

    My rooster started it, then mini rooster started in and then all the ladies joined! My favorite is Betty White (the white silkie) who seems to be totally confused as to why everyone is so upset hahaha 😆

    What is wrong with my girl and what can I do about it?

    My 4 year old black Australorp, Polly, has suddenly turned really nasty. Her whole behavior is off. She is clucking constantly where she has generally been quite a quiet girl. She is frequently fluffing every feather on her body to stand on end, like hackles on a dog - see attached pic. It's...
