    Chicks eating hair....

    They are only two to three weeks old. I won't let them anymore, and they are inside. They also don't eat their feathers. But my adult chickens do!

    Belly hard for two days, then suddenly goes soft. Please help!!

    It's amazing, and very odd. Peter Brown told me she was laying internally. But when I took her out last night, she stopped acting sick, and started acting like a chicken again. I don't get it. She's a little warm outside, but I have fans, waterbottles, ice. She should be fine. It's wierd, but...

    It isn't a chick, but I hope for some advice! Duckling went splat!!

    I have a duckling that jumped out of my hands. She went splat on the carpet... She's only fallen on carpet, but I'm still worried. This has happened twice. I keep a tight grip, but she somehow manages to wriggle free. When she fell, she got up normally, walked normally, and is now eating. She's...

    Little story of the Incident that cemented my decision to get hens...

    Haha! I started in a weird way. I play alot of video games, and I got addicted to Harvest Moon series. It's a farming game! No matter what, I would have 1 cow, but 20 chickens! I begged my Dad for over a year. We finally got some over 7 years ago. That was back when I was ten, and short. LOL...

    Heeheehee, well, the little dear unfortuantly will not have any friends besides chicks. Dad has put his foot down. Here are some photos. Can anyone help me identify her breed? Here she is nestled in my lap. Here she is posing for a head shot. Am I cute enough?? Here she is in the bathtub...

    Oh dear. I'll take it, but I don't know what to do with a DUCKLING....

    Oh my... Two days ago, I was waiting for Dad to call me from Austin. Instead, he returned home. Pa didn't want him visiting this week. At eight-thirty, we heard a knock on the door. One of Dad's customers from his business was standing at the door, a worried look on her face. "Hi, Kyle. Can we...

    Two to three weeks. Okay, Thanks for the advice.... I was worried, because all my others came from my usual feed store.

    Belly hard for two days, then suddenly goes soft. Please help!!

    4H option didn't work out... Maybe I'm just stupid with computers, but after two hours, my head ached. Nothing. She is standing up more, and my Dad told me to take her back outside today. I leave Friday, and then she's out of my care for a full month. Dad says she's panting due to the...

    Is it vital to be vaccinated?

    I recently aquired three chicks that a middle school science teacher hatched. I have 17 birds total, and they will be going out soon. I am not sure if they are vaccinated. Is it vital?
