Interesting. I have a chicken as well that seems 'off' a bit. He crows and carries on as normal, but misses his food like yours. Granted he's ok, by no denying that like me, you might just have a special needs chicken on your hands.
To be honest, the closest I've typically 'gotten' to any...
I intend to make the whooooole thing as user and maintenance friendly as I can. Canadian winters are UGLY and I don't want to have to spend a minute longer than I have too out there farting around with food and water. I'm definitely going to rig something up for both to make my life easier...

I have no plans at all, other than the fact I need a building. It's being purpose built from the ground up for my...
Thanks for the kudos. I'm glad you enjoy seeing them as much as I do. The ornamentals can certainly be exceptionally beautiful. No denying that!
Apart from my own birds, a thumbs up to the other entrants. Definitely some clean, healthy and beautiful looking birds...I'd love to have...
