    How To Train Your Dog Not To Kill Chickens

    All I have is time, I'm disabled and unable to work so my time is spent at home raising animals, I'm trying to train her but she's hard headed, though yes.. I'm willing to spend as much time as I have to in order to train this dog, I don't want her becoming like my other collie, who instead of...

    How To Train Your Dog Not To Kill Chickens

    I'd also love to know a solution, my mom found a puppy that someone had thrown out of a moving vehicle and abandoned in the middle of the night when there was no moon (it was an almost pitch black collie) and she has recently killed all my old chickens.. I got new chicks today, but even my old...

    Suddenly aggressive rooster: I need help

    His eyesight is fine still thankfully, he can see things even better than I can most days, hes always the first to let the hens know if he finds bugs or fruit to eat, they rely a lot on him still so I know he's alright in that regard. It likely is because I often try to avoid them and quite...

    Suddenly aggressive rooster: I need help

    No, my hens don't even lay eggs for whatever reason, they never have either. So eggs aren't the problem, I wouldn't doubt there was inbreeding given where most chicks come from though in the stores around where I live at, although as you said that's likely not the problem either at his age.

    Suddenly aggressive rooster: I need help

    I'm looking for help on figuring out why my rooster has suddenly become so aggressive and any possible solutions on how I might be able to help him or calm him down in the very least. I'm not sure what breed he is specifically (a smaller rooster with feathered feet) but he's always been...
