thank you!!! she’s so perfect, she brings me so much joy! i give her as much attention as possible. i’ve been sitting here with her on my lap for about three hours now today lol! her name is Button! how many chickens do you have? are they social?
thank you for having me! i’m so happy to be a part of the conversation. i want to give my girl the best life i can! this website has helped me through a LOT over the past five months while i’ve been researching!
thank you so much!!! i’m so happy to be here! she is very adorable, she’s so little for her age but she’s slowly catching up! i’m proud of my little fighter! i love spending hours with her everyday, she genuinely brings me so much joy!
i really appreciate everyone getting back to me so quickly and being so helpful. i’m still learning so i appreciate everyone’s kindness and support! i will be making changes to her enclosure now, i’m just so glad she’s not sick and that it’s an easy fix! <3 i was so embarrassed posting here, i...
thank you!!! i’m definitely going to repurpose my old clothes in doing that, she may even enjoy pecking the clothes, she loves “grooming” me and my clothes lol!
thank you!!! i appreciate everyone’s kindness here. she totally has plenty (if not too much) room, she just loves the one corner where i put mirrors against the walls. i’ll invest now in some hanging ones as well as moving those corner mirrors to hopefully discourage her from leaning against the...
perfect, thank you! i actually have a bunch of old clothes that aren’t good enough to donate, i’ll repurpose them to do that :) thank you!!! i’m also gently stroking up her feathers and they’re definitely doing better, but not perfect. i’ll be more cautious about my placement of her mirrors/toys...
hello! thank you!!! it is very big, she has plenty of room to turn around and explore. i think it’s because she spends her time in the corner where i keep the mirrors attached to the walls. i’m going to try moving the mirrors away from the wall (especially in corners) and see how that goes 🥰
thank you!!! i just replied to another post in which they said the same thing! like i said there, she does like to lay in the corner where i hung a couple of mirrors, so ill try moving those first for a week, and if the problem continues i’ll invest in a bigger space. i want to make life perfect...
quite large, she has plenty of space to hop around whenever i have to put her away, but she does like to lay in the corner of her cage (that’s where i keep mirrors for her). i take her out for a few hours daily to free roam my living space (which i supervise) so honestly it may be the cage like...
hello! i got too eager and posted my question first before introducing myself. i’m a first time chicken mom of a rhode island red hen. she lives indoors with me since i live in the woods, so my neighbors have told me horror stories of their chickens and ducks being attacked by the wildlife. she...
hi everyone!
i’m a proud owner of a rhode island red hen. she’s my first chicken, as i’m only 21 years old. my girl is five months old, and i only own her because my older sister bought chickens and one was sick with a bad leg, so the others were picking on her. therefore, now i caretake for...
