    Bantam Hen Attacked by Larger Hens, Now Off Balance

    Hi ya’ll! This morning, one of my Bantam chickens was ganged up on by my two Rhode Island Red hens. They have lived together for over a year and have never been aggressive with each other. After I shooed the bigger hens away I took the Bantam out of the pen and held her and let her drink some...

    Injured Chicken Toe!

At first I thought it was bleeding at the base of the nail but it’s actually part of the tow above the nail. It’s pretty flimsy, basically hanging on by a thread.

    Hen Mallard Went Missing =(

I assumed it was Loretta that was laying the eggs the last few days because I didn't think Little Duck would lay...

    Hen Mallard Went Missing =(

    Hi all! Yesterday evening I had let my ducks and chickens out of their runs (the ducks and chickens are housed separately but next to each other) to roam the yard (as I typically do whenever the weather is nice) while I was doing stuff around my yard. I always let them out to roam the yard when...

    Lonely Duck

    Hey, ya’ll! I need some info on how to handle a recent situation I had to deal with regarding my ducks. Two summers ago, I purchased two ducklings from tractor supply. I raised them together in a run right next to my chickens. They were from a mixed batch but they are both female (they both...

    MARYLAND THREAD!

    Hey, ya'll! Yesterday I got a lovely visit from a rather unpleasant man that works for the county stating that there was a complaint about me having bonfires on my property. Upon inspection the unpleasant man determined that since there are rocks around the fire pit that it is perfectly legal...
