    Chickens fighting

    We just noticed the back of one of our chickens neck and back were bare. We think the other ones are pecking at her. Has anyone else had this before and what did you do. Or if anyone knows what we can do?

    Ducks fighting

    They are all picking on each other but the one has gotten it worse than the others. I have noticed sometimes one of the ducks just stands back and tries not to get into the fight

    Ducks fighting

    Just curious but how can you tell if they are drakes? I read something about their Curly tails are more likely to be males but one of them has a more straight tail and not so curly like the others.

    Is it the best pin? No. But it beats being chased and hunted by coyotes and raccoons.

    Chicken laid first egg

    So far she has been laying every 2-4 days and we believe another one of the hens are starting to lay but we can't figure out which one yet. Can't help but say I feel like a proud chicken mama

    Chicken laid first egg

    The one that has laid her first is a hide island red.. we have one other Rhode Island that isn't as "matured" like she is.. they are all the same age

    Chicken laid first egg

    We've looked throughout the coop and in their run and nothing.. she's not acting like she was the other day when she laid her first one.. and she's the only one out of 6 that has started to lay.. they are all also only about 4/5 months

    Chicken laid first egg
