    Hawk swoops down over me repeatedly going after my girls.

    Quote: That's a good idea. You know I had a fake rooster that was feathered and I just could not stand it so I sold it in my yard sale a few weeks a go maybe I should have kept it! Oh well

    Yeah, it really creeps me out. I would never have thought that a bird like that would be that brave. He is so big too and my little white cat likes to sneak outside once in a while so now I really watch her. He could pick her up easy and just fly off.

    Hawk swoops down over me repeatedly going after my girls.

    Wow, I just bumped into this thread and I was a little surprised that I'm not the only one with a hawk problem. I have noticed that a hawk had been hanging around quite a bit around my parakeet coop and I didn't realize right away that he was window shopping my parakeets! I finally figured...

    What's the best chicken treat???

    We tried mealworms early on too and my girls went nuts. They like to get in our bird feeders and kick out all of the seeds just to find the perfect one. I just discovered the other night that they love spaghetti noodles. They like grapes too. My husband taught them early on that if he...

    Fountain Hills, Arizona?

    I live in between Flagstaff and Fountain Hills and we pass though Fountain Hills at warp speed too but we sometimes gas up there. I agree it is kind of part of the valley area. It is a popular place to live I know two people that live there. The fountain is kind of neat when it goes off...

    Ugh. Lost 2 chickens.

    I just lost one of mine too and I don't know why. It still makes you sad either way. She seemed fine earlier in the day too. I have really nice neighbors they wanted to give me a few of their hens since now I only have 3 girls. I'm a little concerned about fighting if I introduce new hens...

    Early morning (hen) honking - any way to train her?

    One of my girls was getting really loud too. I was also a little worried until she got a few months older and started to lay eggs that she was a he just because she looked so much different too. My husband started to call her the dinosaur chicken which stuck and then we would laugh when she...

    Disgusting...I went out to give away treats and

    I really don't like scorpions at all, they give me the creeps. My girls eat so many icky things when I let them out to run that I worry that their eggs will taste bad But I think they keep getting better all the time! They have been laying for several months now.
