    My chickens toe is falling off....

    I have one very skittish chicken, and all of her toes have fallen off. I very rarely see her close enough to notice, as she never comes to me, and runs when I come. I don't know what to do for her?!?! I can't catch her to treat her!!

    Great Depression of 2016

    We will go back to trading within communities. It's already starting. Even Americans know the value of the dollar is not backed by anything solid. No gold, No silver, No oil, even. It's just a piece of paper with a number on it. Today that number might get me a gallon of milk. Tomorrow that same...

    Putting the girls into their new hen house-HELP!

    They are approx. 15 weeks old, the roost bars are a little over 3 feet high, but i know they can get up there, because they like to sit on top of my 6' privacy fence... (which is very annoying, as my neighbors are not thrilled about my chickens possibly getting into their yards...) I even tried...

    Comment by 'KellyT' in article 'How To Incubate & Hatch Chicken Eggs - Just 21 Days From Egg To Chicken!'

    Putting the girls into their new hen house-HELP!

    I converted a storage shed in my yard to a coop by putting in windows, roost bars, and a shelf with nest boxes... granted, my pullets are not laying yet, and won't for maybe a couple more months, but my goofy girls are now refusing to roost on the roost bars... They just all huddle together in a...

    Is there a 'quiet' breed of roosters?

    I live outside city limits and there are no restrictions on me, but I would rather not have angry neighbors... I just want to find a rooster that is quiet enough not to wake the neighbor's baby at the crack of dawn...any suggestions for that?
