    Rooster's loving is getting a bit rough!

    How did he handle being away from the hens? I have one rooster and 21 hens. They all have bald spots on their back, and their feathers are very ragged. He is a great protector, breaks up arguments, calls them in at night, etc. but this constant "rough making" has to stop. I've taken him out...

    For the new folks that haven't experienced a molt yet.

    Thank you so much for the photo. I have a Rhode Island Red named "Blaze" and she looks worse than your photos. I've been very concerned about the cold, damp weather and brought her into our basement. She is also towards the bottom of the pecking order, and I'm sure the pecks from the other...

    Guinea keet not doing well.

    Thank you so much. I will give that a try. She really doesn't want anything but worms. Approaches feed but walks away without eating. Will try the vitamins & egg yolk. Thanks again.

    Guinea keet not doing well.

    This is my first experience with chicks: they are 10 days old and a guinea keet is hanging her head and wings, not interested in eating or drinking for a few days. I've coaxed her to eat two or three meeley worms every few hours. She is now starting to pick at the crumbles and drink on her...
