    my hen has spurs?

    I have just noticed one of my Isa Brown girls has what look like spurs but its just the flesh, from a distance they look like small spurs, funny thing is she can be quite nasty to my sons and partner but has never attacked me. I have 8 girls and she is the only one who portrays the dominance to...

    Figgys Chicken Coop

    CLUB CLUCKY I started my chicken adventure with 8 5 week old Isa Browns and 2 very small chicken coops that cost a fortune, not realising that they would only use the one coop! (and the guy who sold them to must have been laughing at me) so one never got used and they all cramed into the one. I...

    watery poop and listless

    She seems ok now! I ended up giving them a cabbage and some spinach, I think it might have given her some vitamins after feeling unwell.

    lost all 8 Silkies and Frizzles last night....Grrr

    Sorry for you loss, you must feel very sad, my thoughts are with you. I recently watched a documentary about foxes and they dont eat their prey straight away, they will kill then burry them and normally wont stop (especially if they have young) until they have got them all or enough to satify...

    What breed do I have??

    My girls were sold to me as Isa Browns, I dont seem to be able to find them in here anywhere, could it just be that they call them a different name here in Australia, they look very similar to the Orpingtons (hope ive spelt that right). They are now just over 20 weeks and have started laying...
