    What type of predator done this? Warning: Graphic

    That is what coons like to do, take off the heads. A farmer told me it is because they like the combs. Anyway we trapped coons here in TX and found that when we put bacon in the trap, we caught a coon. They love the smell of bacon. Glad your hen is doing better.

    Is my hen REALLY BROODY?????

    I have just one broody right now and she just lets out a growl when you go near. I have had a couple of white rock broodies that would eat you alive while they were nesting. But this hen just makes noise and doesn't even fluff up so I guess each hen is unique in their behavior.

    Look what I found under one of my breeder pens!!!

    I have seen lots of rat snakes here, and dealt with them, but not that type of snake. I even came upon a large one that had one of my young pullets wrapped up with it's body. I was not able save the baby but I had no mercy on the snake. Then we started to miss eggs in the shed we had the...

    I just have to put in my two cents here. I have a small dog that is a rat terrier and a large dog that is a mix (rescue dog) Setter and lab type. I completely agree with you on the training. I spent time letting my dogs know that they are not to mess with the chickens, but praised them...
