    I'm stumped at what is doing this.

    Thanks for the posts. I don't know if the attacks happen at night or in the day. We bought this farm and are renovating the house but aren't able to live there yet. So that's the problem I have not knowing the details on things. Obviously I have a gap somewhere. What I was wondering was...

    I'm stumped at what is doing this.

    Roosters

    SO GLAD to find this thread! Thanks jkoselke !!! We bought a small farm that came with 22 chickens. Well after the winter the boys developed out into rowdy, fighting, flogging Roos. We have 6 roos. Came in today to find blood smeared all over the feeder and two roos had torn up combs. They are...

    lets see the "ugly" coops plz

    YEEHAW!! We finally bought the farm....literally! All the girls, (24 and 2 roos) have been free ranging because the past owner was too ill to repair the rotted coop and overly pooped run area. And so it begins... We got a truck load of pallets at the feed store and scavenging what good wood we...
