These r some pics I have on my phone. They have that space and a half acre to roam as well. We got one little laying for about a week now and she gets beat up the most....

Say it isn't so....

They all free range for some time daily. It's the three big girls together and then two little girls together and the third little girl goes back and forth but never fully in with the big girls. Little ones seem scared. They've gotten used to them both in the coop and free ranging but generally...

We introduced three new twelve-week-old hens to our current flock of three one-year-old hens. It's been at least two months and they still don't get along. They share a run which is 10x10, during the day, but it's like two rival gangs. Old ladies over here and little ones over there. They've...

So we live in a semi wooden lot. And we are inundated with poison ivy. The previous owners created pathways around the backyard leaving Islands with trees and natural foliage and of course tons of poison ivy. Our chickens free range under our supervision. Would it be safe to spray everything...

A bad thunderstorm is coming. My husband thinks we should close the vent window for like an hour or so till it passes. Is that safe?

Vent is fine, no mites or lice that I can see, feet are fine. Stomach is soft too so I don't think egg bound

Never thought about that...I'll check it out. Ty
