    What treat did your chickies get today?

    Cleaning out the fridge before we leave town so the chickens made out like bandits! They got tomatoes, cucumber peels, a couple peaches, and corncobs. Happy chickens.

    Red Tail Hawk Scaring Me!!

    We use bird scare flash tape. Its available on amazon and a few other places. It blows in the wind, is shiny and scares the hawks away. I heard cds in the trees help too but the keep stealing them. HAha! I can't win. The tape seems to help a lot though.

    dog breeds that will not chase chickens

    We have an Australian Shepherd. She herds ducks, geese, sheep, goats, and now my chickens. She has never attacked them. She does drop tennis balls on their heads from time to time because she wants them to play with her but that's the most harm done so far. I don't know if it is a breed...

    Husband lost the chickens! Funny story.

    So, my husband and I are new to chickens. We have had them a little over a month and last night, while I was at work, I got a panicked call from my husband telling me that he lost the chickens. We have an acre of land covered in fruit trees and grass but not a lot of places to "lose" chickens...

    Hello from Reno, NV.

    Hi! My name is Kimberly. I live in Reno, Nevada with my husband and our Australian Shepherd, Cassie. After months of research and wanting, we finally brought home three chickens yesterday. They seem happy in their coop. After a week or so, they will be free to roam the acre but until then...
