    Egg Eater

    I'm having the same problem. For me it got worse. I used to collect a dozen eggs a day, but now I get none. Separate that bird quick!

    Roo attacks his favorite girl with her apron on

    I've never even heard of a chicken apron. I can't tolerate an overly aggressive rooster. I don't know if it's the breed or what. I mostly keep RIR's and have had really good luck with them being fairly tame towards me but not one another. White leghorns can be aggressive. The meanest I've...

    Chicken Vaccines?

    I don't vaccinate mine and never would give them any type of medicine of any kind. I think it the birds live in clean conditions and are properly cared for most of them will live long healthy lives.

    Help- Port Charlotte Florida

    Maybe a zoo would take your rooster or a school? I live near a zoo and they have chickens walking around all over. I don't know how far you are from Key West, but that town has chickens all over the place. ;)

If she falls asleep that's good but lately she hasn't fallen asleep and that's okay too. We just make sure she stays in her room for...

    It's a wonderful day in South Carolina

    Frosty, I think I'll always want more. I don't know why but land ownership (on a large scale)has always been a dream of mine. We're really only using about 5acres of what we have. The rest is wooded. I really enjoy animals and can see myself with dozens of breeds of animals for food and play...

    How to Raise Turkeys

    First thing Turkeys are hard to keep alive. I tried some this year. I bought 15 and within 4 days 4 of them died... a few days later I lost one more. Now since then it's been smooth sailing. I think the mistake I made was I didn't realize the temp for the turkeys needed to be 5 degrees higher...

    Is it normal for a rooster to peck a new hen? (introducing silkie to existing flock of 10)

    I would've done the same thing you did. I had a pair of RIR in my flock once that picked on a small injured bird and practically pecked it to death. It was injured, but I didn't think they'd do that.
