    Chickens won’t stop digging along the run fence!

    The place I live is also called the Sandhills!🤣The ground is super easy for them to dig up and they can’t get enough of it. I’ll definitely have to get some more stones!

    Extremely Aggressive Buff Orpington Rooster

    I bought a BO rooster a couple months ago. He just turned one and he is very aggressive. I can’t go anywhere near the coop or run without being attacked multiple times. He just won’t give up no matter what. Any suggestions on what I can do or should I just get rid of him? I attached a picture...
