    Anyone trained their dog to stay away from chickens like this?

    We trained our English Pointer and Bully/Pitbull to behave around our chickens with nothing more than gently assertive patience. To be fair, our pointer could have cared less about the chickens. He walks among them without a care that they're there. Our pit bull, on the other hand, was very...

    Cracked beak! Advice wanted!

    One of my girls cracked her beak this morning. It's not bleeding, and we can isolate her if necessary. I've given her fermented mash (the usual breakfast) and a bowl of water (they usually use nipple waterers but I don't want her to peck for water). Should I take her to the vet after the...

    Chick born with no feet and potentially blind

    I'm sorry to hear the chick didn't make it. Nature often takes care of things for us. You're a wonderful person for even caring enough to try. I wish you and your chicks good health, and hope you have a better experience with your next chicks!

    Chick born with no feet and potentially blind
