    Protect coop from mini pig?

    I have 2 chickens, 1.5yr apart in age and my older australorp killed 3 speckled Sussex on the same day! So with only one SS left, I had to make a partition so they have separate coop/runs. Over the past year, the wood of the coop weakened with the elements and the mini pig (which I've had since...

    Injury? Self-inflicted? Something more?

    Thank you! Yes they do free range often so I dont usually see much chasing around. The cockerel is the same age as the others. Will it get better with time? Shes not the favorite or even second favorite but I guess could be more on the submissive side. I do plan on switching to a flock but have...

    Injury? Self-inflicted? Something more?

    Hey! I'm attaching some photos of my 10 month old EE Bambi (sorry, she has a piece of corn up there lol) I hatched her and her siblings and they're in a 9x4.5 foot coop/run. They also free-range under supervision. In total its 1 roo with 9 hens. They eat Purina layena daily as well as a bit of...

    Baby Names?

    The white one im not 1000% sure. Not even about the age because no one could tell me, but the adults of those had red combs and my last hatch also had red combs even around this age so I'm still hopeful. The tail feathers also still point girl to me. I could still be mistaken

    Baby Names?

    Hi there! I know its been a while but, just in case any of you were still curious, I'm wrapping up this thread. Of the two "yellow" chicks I purchased, one was obviously weaker and only got worse :( it was eating and drinking but preferred to sleep and peep like a mad-woman if it was separated...

    Baby Names?

    I love it! They're all so clever. I also suggested Braveheart for this baby but got some opposition from others haha. I mostly went the Disney route myself: Hercules (first born, boy), Rambo Kronk (crazy, last born, boy), Ducky (red waddle almost at birth, boy), Simba (colored, most outgoing...

    Baby Names?

    Thank you! I'm not 100% sure either but the wing method was almost spot on accurate for me last time so so far it could look like a girl. We'll see. As for companions, trust me I could incubate left and right but I just wouldn't have enough space for them once they're of age 😩 I did find a...

    Baby Names?

    Hello there! New here to the BYC forum but I've been reading for almost a year ❤ places like these have helped me a lot. I guess a bit of an introduction: I'm 22 from South Florida and looooove animals. I've always had a dog and lots of fish, the occasional reptile or small furry mammal, and...
