    Hen laying

    I got them in February and they started laying in June-July somewhere in that time & I do not supplement light. And could you explain what molting is?

    Dead chicken today

    I have a smaller flock, I had 11 but today I went out and noticed a dead chicken. She was roughly 4 1/2 -5 months old. There was no visible damage I could notice and the other chickens didn’t seem to be on edge. What would possibly cause this? Thanks

    Prepping for winter ugh

    Does anyone have recommendations for keeping the water from freezing this winter. I live in northern Michigan and it gets pretty bad in the winter. And also should I close off the ends in the winter so they have another place for cover Thanks

    Please help me identify

    Could someone explain these? I found them out back behind my house. Thinking males someone dumped because they just wanted the females. Any idea? Thanks

    Coyotes

    Yes they do have a coop to go into for the night. They haven’t come out yet but I’m trying to stay ahead of the game. I saw a woman who has a bunch of reflective tape around her area of ducks. Is that something that might help with hawks during the day?

    Coyotes

    Yea I used to do that but this time they are free range. I didn’t know if the sound of a person talking on a radio would keep them away
