    Chicken Aggression?!?

    Thank you for the feedback, everyone. The idea of removing her from the flock sounds ideal, but, unfortunately, we don't have a second coop, so no one can be removed from the flock. Any other ideas? I will try and do more research on the poultry blinders.

    Chicken Aggression?!?

    Hi everyone! So, I have three hens. Up until recently, my New Hampshire Red, Piper, was always the leader of the flock, but it seems as if she has been bumped down to the bottom, and now my Sicillian Buttercup, Maple, is flock leader. It's strange that she is now the leader because she is very...

    are leashes the answer?

    It sounds like a tricky situation! I would not support tying them up, because not only would the birds not like it, but I think it could be harmful to themselves as well. I totally understand wanting to let them out of their run, but if its dangerous you might have to re-consider. We also live...

    Beloved hen dissapeared

    One of my favorite girls, Olive, disappeared last night. She is a smaller bird, who probably would not have put up a very good fight. So, every night, once it gets dark out, we lock all of our chickens in the secure part of their coop. So even if animal digs a hole under the run it still can't...
