    It’s like she’s an old lady who needs a Poise pad!

    I also have a 2 yr old EE who does this exact same thing. Mine also lost all her neck feathers 4 months ago. I thought it was just a molt, but it's gone on too long for that. She is also looking lean. Its nearly 100 degrees here. She free ranges with the rest of the flock. She has laid a couple...

    Please help me diagnose an issue with an EE, thought it was just a molt...

    What a great resource! Thank you for sharing this. She is lean, but always has been. I was wondering about an internal parasite, just because the quality of her feathers seems poor. Like they are dry, or hollow, perhaps. I have not wormed them. I have 17 and she is the only one who seems to have...

She prefers to spend her time in the densely shaded portion of the yard, and many of her young cohorts hang with her. She is quite large, but...

    Smitten

    I started with 3 hens 4 years ago. My daughter was in HS and was vegan. I worried about her getting enough protein and pleaded with her to eat eggs. She educated me on the egg industry, even those labeled as cage free, and free range. So, I asked if we got chickens and provided a happy and...

    Thank you Tonya. I just wanted to check my thinking, and wondered if others have been down this path.

    Seeking advice for surprise Cornish cross

    On March 15 I brought home a dozen Spring chicks, for a broody hen. One of these chicks that I believed to be a buff orpy quickly reveled herself to be something else entirely. A little research convinced me she is a jumbo Cornish cross. I thought the most humane thing would be to give her to...
