    I had written before about my Buff Brahma with the plugged nostril. She had a blockage in her one nostril. after soaking it for at least a week, it came out leaving a very large nostril hole. About a week ago I noticed that the nostril had completely healed over with skin. So now there is no...

    Buff orpington taken by hawk

    It has only been a couple of days since her loss & I'm having a hard time keeping the girls in their run. I like to see them out & they want out. With spring here & summer coming its going to be hard to keep them caged. I really didn't want a rooster but I guess I better start thinking about it

    Buff orpington taken by hawk

    My orpington was very small, 3 years old, raised from a peep & practically weighed nothing. She was healthy & pretty, just tiny but she was the leader of the group. If i were to get more hens they would be orpingtons. It's only been a couple days

    Buff orpington taken by hawk

    She was 3 years old but so tiny, very lite. She would have been easy to take, practically weighed nothing.

    Buff orpington taken by hawk

    My very favorite hen was killed today, a buff orpington. When I wet to put the girls to bed she was missing. It didn't take me long to find the pile of feathers. I'm just sick about it. This morning my neighbor called to tell me a large hawk was watching. I looked, didn't see it & dismissed it...

    My Chicken has a plugged nostril

    My Chicken has a badly plugged nostril. The nostril is now huge. I was shocked when I saw it. It is a solid mass like a rock but not a rock. It won't budge. How do I help her. Oh course she's my favorite. Help. Kate
