    Sister fights!!!

    It sounds like she has a lot of pent up anger and frustration. Perhaps she's not dealing with the pregnancy very well / her hormones are all over the place. I would strongly recommend she sees a councellor and tries to get to the bottom of the problem. I've been to councelling in the past and...

    Kent, England

    I'm from Kent too! I live near Ashford. It's bloody cold at the moment but luckily my chickens are alright because we're keeping them indoors. We lost 8 to a fox a little while ago so we're renovating and securing their coop. They love being indoors, they're practically domesticated now!

    has anyone ever got a book published?

    I'm a self published author. I did it through a website called Lightening Source (not sure of the link, Google it!). Basically it's sold on all the biggest websites and they only print when they get orders. That way I only make profit and I don't have to worry about dealing with publishing...

    My Halloween Costume. Can You Guess What I'm Going To Be?

    How much and how often to handfeed? Pics!!

    "How often" depends on the bird really, so it's hard to say. As for "how much", feed him until he pauses for a second. When he's hungry he'll keep eating; if he has time to take a break and relax then he's not hungry anymore and you should stop! It's like when I feed the birds in my loft: I...

    Will future babies have feathered feet? PIC!!!

    It really depends on the lineage of the birds. If they are quite homozygous (meaning they have very few recessive genes and what you see is what you'll get) then you've got a good chance of getting similar looking birds from a breeding. If they come from parents who look very different to them...

    I'm interested in...pigeons/doves!

    Pigeons aren't too hard to keep, you'll just need a good loft! I use a couple of places for information on keeping mine. There's a forum called pigeon basics which I like to post on, and a website called pigeons and racing pigeons. I wouldn't recommend keeping them with your chickens because...
