    Flock Tested Positive for Avian Influenza

    This is heart wrenching. I feel your pain. If I lose one bird to a raccoon, I am distraught. An entire flock would be devastating. Thank you for doing the responsible thing and reporting the deaths and testing. You are helping save the rest of us from this virus. I am glad they let you have...

    DIY SCRAP COOP

    I love your bucket nest boxes! So easy to clean and already has a front to hold straw or shavings!

    Is my starlight chicken a rooster?

    Looking at the comb and wattles.. (very developed and red compared to others in photo ). When my Olandsk Dwarf chicks start showing size and color in their wattles , they are the boys.

    My 9 year old roo, who is father to many, stepfather to many more! He teaches the chick to trust the humans. Until this year, Ragnar contributed to the longevity gene in my flock. His mate Hildegard is 8 and still laying but no fertile eggs.

    Why are my Chickens not laying eggs?

    Hi, I had a house that never produced eggs, until I discovered an egg outside under the 'secure' house/ yard area, so the hen had not put it there! Then I noticed a hole in the yard, which turned out to be a rat tunnel running out under the henhouse. We set up a game camera and discovered a...

    Indoor pet chicken

    Good for you for finding a way around the allergy problem! My husband is allergic to dog and cat dander. The doctor prescibed allergy meds so the pets can sleep on our bed. A couple of years ago we learned that our poor Westhighland white terrier is allergic to a lot of things. Especially human...

    Indoor pet chicken

    "I happen to be allergic to planet earth 🌏 with or without pets 😆" Long ago my husband found out he was allergic to dog and cat dander. The doctor said, "I don't suppose you are going to get rid of all your pets." Nope! Hubby takes medication so the dogs and cats still sleep on the bed with...
