    large spreading scabs on chickens neck

    Our naked neck has had a scab on his neck for a while and it recently started spreading very rapidly and we are not sure what it is or if it’s hurting him. He had fowl pox about a year ago thank you for any help! but the scab eventually cleared up and fell off, but this seems to be in the same spot

    chicken with bald patch

    My girl Wanda has been missing this patch of neck feathers for over a month. I have checked my entire flock for mites/lice multiple times and don’t see any so I figured it was molting - they started growing back and I didn’t think much of it but the last week they’ve started to fall again and...

    Feeling guilty

    mine also wine and line up at the door when they’re put away/when I’m around but can’t let them out. I do feel guilty too but like everyone else has said - safety comes first and you’re protecting them!

    Free ranging

    We let ours begin free ranging around 8-10 weeks (supervised at first, of course). It helps that for the first few weeks they tend to stick to a much smaller area and don't stray too far from each other.

    Going out if town

    Mine for the most part just eat what they need - I'd say as long as you have enough feeders that are situated where they can't spill out/knock over food they would most likely last the three days, but again, all depends on how much they eat!

    What's your chicken's/chickens' favorite snack/treat?

    Mine absolutely love frozen strawberries, especially in the heat! Watermelon also seems to be a favorite, and they will devour blueberry yogurt!
