    Hen has a secret nest?

    Hello everyone, since I posted this... I now have chicks! I found her nest (In the woods and briars, behind a cinderblock pile) I checked on her everyday. Sunday made 21 days since she's been sitting, so yesterday I went out to see if there were any chicks and there were 4! I was so suprised! I...

    switching from ground waterer to hanging nipple water

    I was told that when you switch, push the nipple in so that water comes out so that they can see. Put it close to where their old waterer was, they should figure it out.

    Hen has a secret nest?

    I shut my chickens up at night because I've had problems in the past with predators. They've always went in when it got dark, but for the past 4 nights, my naked neck hen (Her name is Turkey), she hasn't went in with the rest, I shut the coop up because I can't loose anymore chickens. Every...
