    Legbar gone mad

    It’s not just roosters. They probably have over a hundred chickens. Lots and lots of hens too. I dropped one there before and there was zero drama because there are SO many birds.

    Legbar gone mad

    I did try the pinless peepers. It did nothing. I do have a friend with a huge flock inside a goat pen. He lets people drop off rooster all the time. Has some very large birds and lots of space. I’ll talk to him about it.

    Legbar gone mad

    Hi all, update on Maizey. I sectioned off port of my run and built a little shelter. Put her in with my rooster who was being a meanie. They seemed happy back there together. Had room to move but couldn’t hurt anyone. She’s been laying eggs. We were all good for 2 months. I tried some short...

    I’ve got her in chicken jail again… further away and longer this time for sure! I actually thought about dying Butterbean! My other two are black silkies. Not sure how I could dye her that color though.

    She isn’t picked on by any of my other hens. Just the legbar. :( … when I lock Maizey up there are no problems.

    Legbar gone mad

    Hi all! I have a beautiful and very snuggly cream legbar hen (Maizey) who absolutely hates one of my other chickens. My poor little white silkie (Butterbean) gets penned down and her head plucked bald and scalp injured every time they are near each other. She nearly scalped my little fluffy...

    Leap Day Chicks!

    Beautiful! I hatched some leap year babies too! Mine are silkies. My roo is white, and I have a white hen and a black hen. These three I kept from my hatching eggs last year. Their siblings were all white, black, or paint. Somehow, my chicks are partridge, grey, and black. 😆 Maybe the grey will...

    Mystery chick

    This is her now at 15 weeks … She looks like a Cemani with the wrong comb and feathered legs. 🤷‍♀️

    Mystery chick

    Thanks! So you do agree it looks more like a Cemani mix? I’m very curious how this one will turn out.

    Mystery chick

    Hi all, I had a free chick added to the ones I picked up because it was a mystery. It was hatched from eggs in her polish and silkie pen. I grabbed 3 nice looking polish chicks. (Not show birds, just fun pets) And she gave us another one we couldn’t figure out. Solid black, with a little...

    Broody mama question

    Cool! I was thinking about building a run/coop right next to my main one for the chicks and broody mama or introducing new birds. Glad to know that this works well!

    Broody mama question

    I’m trying to figure out if I can do that! They are leaving her alone right now. She gets pecked some when she decides to eat. But, it seems to be because she is trying to eat super fast and shoving her way in to the food dish. I might have to build a small coop and “run” inside my main run.

    Broody mama question

    Thank you for sharing! I’m working hard to figure out how to move her and give her a safe space of her own! So far she’s ok, but I think it will be better for her once they hatch too.
