    Two pullets excluded from the flock. Advice needed

    1) If a chicken with a low rank is treated perfectly and is pampered with treats, she will learn to not obey chicken social order. 2) Leave them be. Every flock has its lowest and highest ranking bird. Respect that. 3) No culling is needed. If your birds roost together, and do not harm each...

    Rat Snake Ate Cermic Eggs...

    I agree with chickengeorgeto. Many snakes will regurgitate prey they find too big. I'd keep a lookout as you could (possibly) find them laying on the ground where they were thrown up (if the snake decides to do that).

    I searched through my pictures and found some pics of our top rooster Garnet! He's a little roughed up from putting the cockerels in their place, but he's still happy and healthy!

    I agree @ChickNanny13 I'd probably heavily dilute it in water and add more if necessary. less is more in this situation.

    My MilleFluer d'Uccle Fell in the waterer

    I'm no expert, but i've seen many commercials showing dawn dish soap doing wonders for ducklings that were damaged by oil spills, so maybe a safe dish soap could help remove the stickiness.

    My MilleFluer d'Uccle Fell in the waterer

    I agree with ChickNanny13 about the bath. I'd just make sure to prevent this from happening again, to put marbles or the little glass vase rock thingies inside the waterer, and to avoid using chemicals to wash/rinse/clean the chick.

    Starter Ducks

    Hello! I have owned chickens for a couple years now and i am thinking about getting a few ducks. I have a 3 acre piece that is about 30 feet from my house that i'm going to start putting poultry in. A pond (most likely 1/4 acre in size) is going to be built and completed before we get any...

    Questions for Coop vs Run

    1) the coop is where they sleep (the structure) and the run is the enclosure that the chickens can go in to experience "outside". 2) people mainly lock chickens in the coop at night to help prevent predators, encourage roosting, and so the chickens feel safer. 3) I'd personally close a door...
