    Do I have confused ducks???

    I have 2 Indian Runners and about 50 chickens. I had 6 ducks, but a dog killed all but the 2, one male and one female. The grew up with chicks and now hang out with the chickens. I have tried making them their own sleeping area, but they insist on sleeping under the roosting chickens. The...

    Sheep Chat Thread

    Thank you. Ben and Chase are both hair sheep. Their mothers were both black belly and looked like Chase and the father was white like Ben. I'm not sure what breed he was, I just saw him once from across the pasture.

    Sheep Chat Thread

    I only have 2 sheep. I got the first one in January of 2012, he was about 4 hours old and his mother couldn't feed him. He was placed in my arms and I was told "If someone doesn't take him, he will die." I learned to bottle feed him. His name is Ben.' About a week later I was told by the...

    Any guess on gender of these NN chicks.

    Thanks, I hope you are wrong, but if not they will be nice looking roosters one day.

    My Chickens Ate What!?! (Warning: Graphic Photos)

    I have seen my chickens going after sparrows that try to share their scratch. I've never seen them catch one though. I have no doubt that if they did catch one they would eat it.

    Single chick hatched on Christmas day.

    One of my NN hens hatched a single chick on Christmas day. The father is a D'uccle. I am trying to find a couple more to put in with her so the little chick won't be all alone. The little chick has some feathering on it's legs and has muffs and beard.

    are chickens pets?

    Mine are pets. Many of them will come sit with me whether I have treats or not. I don't get rid of them just because they don't lay eggs anymore.

    Baby chicks hatched today the old fashioned way.

    They are so cute! I love seeing them with their moms, starting to scratch and her showing them what to eat. I am trying to make friends with the mom by feeding her special treats. I want her to let me be near the little chicks so they'll be friendly when they grow up.

    Baby chicks hatched today the old fashioned way.

    I had 5 baby chicks hatch today! At least 2 of them were fathered by my NN rooster Pablo who died suddenly. You can tell that the black chick and the white chick on the bottom are both NN chicks. One of the eggs was a green egg from my black Easter Egger hen. The other eggs were small eggs...
