    Should I let my girls out of the run?

    I have 16 girls and agree with all of the important points above: Beware: coyotes, fox, hawks, bobcats, and dogs. Having said that we’ve had attacks and no system will be fool proof. Predators are smart and see you 1,000 times to you seeing them only once. I have seen some crazy stuff for...

    Knowing when to rehome, cull or keep trying?

    Hi! We’ve had a chicken or two just be mean! Raised with everyone and then just go bully! It’s an awful feeling as an owner. We have rehomed them with a local farm. She has a lot of land and they free range. Maybe there’s someone near by that will take them, especially if they are laying. My hen...

    Hen with injured wing, small bones sticking out!!!😫😫

    I’m so sorry about the attack. If you want to save her, consider going to the vet. My concern would be that the longer you wait the harder it may be for it heal. Good luck. I hope someone on here can help you! ♥️

    Your Dogs thoughts on chickens ~ a poll

    Hatched shipped eggs with birth defects

    I would’ve agreed before last week. Early Last summer, I had a broody and I ordered from two different breeders on eBay for Bluebells, and Marans. I also threw some local fertilized eggs under her (some went into an incubator). I let them rest, followed a special schedule for the shipped eggs...

    Pullet with possible fungal skin issue?

    I know that this is strange but have you looked in her mouth, how are her eyes?

    Pullet with possible fungal skin issue?

    When I had an issue with poultry lice I emailed the “Chicken Chick.” She has a website. She was so kind and helpful. I would be tempted to separate her just in case it is contagious and maybe give her a break from the rooster. Good luck and keep us posted.
