    Training chickens to go inside their house to roost?

    We have a shed for our chickens to sleep in with lots of roosting bars and then they have their outside run. 4 out of 8 of the chickens aren’t taking themselves inside to roost once the sun falls. Tonight I went down to shut them in and we very narrowly missed the fox getting inside our coop...

    Chicken has been attacked on neck - skin taken off

    No odour and been cleaning with a diluted iodine wash followed by anti-sceptic spray. She eats and drinks perfectly fine but she does tend to hang out by herself and she hasn’t laid any eggs since the attack.

    Hen attacked has serious neck wound and broken wing

    This post is from a really long time ago but what happened to her? My chicken has experienced the exact same thing and has this exact same injury. Need to know if she’s going to recover or if it’s unfair keeping her in this way.
