    Falling Turkey

    So i recently got a white turkey. Not very old, but i think it's female. Last week she was standing odd. Kinda wobbly. Next day my husband went out and my roosters were picking on her and she wouldn't stand. Husband put her in my "hospital " . Eating, drinking, pooping fine, but she still...

    Chocolate! I have one particular chicken that loves chocolate sandwich cookies! ( Oreo type)

    I have one particular chicken that absolutely loves chocolate sandwich cookies. She hears when I open the bag and has a fit! Will these cookies hurt her?

    Pullet or Roo

    I would say Roo. It appears that all of his wing feathers are pretty much the same. A hen will have shorter feathers closer to her body.

    Nest sharing

    So my question is, will a "sitting" hen allow others to lay in her nest, and will she sit other hens eggs? I have 8 hens and 8 nest boxes. 2 of which always have eggs and the others are just hit and miss. The 2 nests that always have eggs are obviously from more than one hen. Each have green...
