    Broodiness Cycle

    What does your hen “jail” look like? I have a broody hen who hatched an egg but I took the baby. She’s still broody so I finally gave her some eggs after weeks of taking her off the meat several times a day. I even put her in a dog crate for a day but got worried at night that she would get hurt...

    Name that bird

    Yes, her legs are blue, the towel she was on probably made it look just a little bluer than it is. But there is a blue tint to the legs.

    New to Chickens

    Our dog got one, we moved them out of the dogs reach. We believe a hawk got another one, so we put up netting over the temporary pen. My husband thinks a chicken snake tried to get one and couldn’t get it down, we moved them to the big coop. Those were all in the first few months we had them...

    Hens not laying

    I've had them about a week. But they stopped laying a couple of months ago. I figured it could take a couple of months for them to start laying again if they are going to.

    A MYSTERY 5 Hens- 4 Eggs?

    I have 4 hens that are 5 months old and 3 of the 4 have started laying for about a month now. I keep watching the 4th wondering when she'll start laying. Is it possible that some never do?

    New to Chickens

    We recently purchased 25 acres and moved from the city to the country. In August we purchased 10 babies from Tractor Supply, 4 have been killed, 2 ended up to be roosters, 2 started laying a little over a month ago and 2 are not doing anything. I purchased 10 older hens from a friend a week ago...

    Hens not laying

    I recently got some hens (10) from a friend. The hens had stopped laying and she was tired of having them. They believe the hens are about 2 years old. I'm new to chickens, we got our first one in August and 3 of our 5 hens we had just started laying. Is there something I should try or any...
