Ok I’ll be sure to do that

Hello. Yesterday, when I came to let my chickens out in the morning, I saw blood all over the floor of the coop. It was a lot of blood, like a lot, mixed in with poop. I thought that a chicken might have been killed by an animal or something but they were all alive and acting pretty normal. And...

I live in Ohio. Food is scare for animals since it’s winter. I thought whatever killed it would’ve had a nice meal.

I was inside all day today cleaning up from Christmas. When I came outside to put my chickens away for the first time all day I found the fence to the run torn down and all of the chickens outside the fence. I counted them, and only found 7. I should’ve had 8, so I kept searching and eventually...

Ok

Soaked her a tried to clean it out, but I was holding her and my idiot brother did a terrible job at that

Here are the best pictures I could get. She was shaking and the camera wouldn’t focus.

No. I just noticed it today so I don’t think it would get infected that quickly. It’s also not a lot of blood, just a bit under the nail. The part I’m worried about is the limping.

I came out today to check on my chickens after school today, and I noticed one of my girls limping. I picked her up to see what was wrong, and saw that both her feet were covered in gunk. It had been around 50 degrees Fahrenheit the last few days, and rainy, so the ground was all wet and muddy...

I have been looking for heated waterers to keep my chickens’ water from freezing in the winter. However, I can’t find any that can be powered by batteries and not by a cord. Our coop is way back in the woods and we can’t reach an extension cord out there. Do you know any battery powered heated...

Yes, at night I shout them in the coop. I put bedding in their roosting boxes, but not on the regular floor.

There are four chickens in each coop

I have two chicken coops that were store bought. Where I live it’s starting to get really cold. And this morning I came out to see my girls shaking and shivering and crowing. Their water was also frozen. What should I do to the coops to keep the chickens warm? And how could I keep the water from...

Ok so one of my hens has been acting really weird today. She’s been going up into the roosting boxes and sitting there like they usually do to lay eggs, but she’s been there for a while. I picked her up and set her down with the others, she ran around for a bit and nothing looked wrong, but...
