    What made you get chickens?

    Thank you! Unfortunately my silkie just came of age and thinks he's the boss. For whatever reason Todd allows the little one to boss him and he plucked out his beautiful tail feathers! :(

    The Adorable Chicken Couple Contest!

    This is Gulliver and Guinevere, pardon the chicken wire in the picture, but I wanted to get pictures without having them move. I'm not good with knowing chicken breeds yet but I believe my roo is a Sumatra(?) And I haven't the slightest idea what my tiny hen is. (Lady hawk is the photo...

    Rain, muck, and flies...Help!i

    Hey everyone, Benson, Az here. Have my very first flock of chickens and ducks, I'm seeing a lot of controversy on the best way to keep my feathered friends cool. They have plenty of shade and automatic waterers, plus the ducks have a wading pool. Any advice is appreciated.
