    How to Clip Guinea Wings

    Would someone please help me? We have eight Guinea fowl along with our flock of 200+ chickens. We had to fence in 3 acres as the “guardian” dogs we bought as pups had Parvo and were away from our flock during those crucial times as puppies. They are NOT able to be with the flock like our Great...

    HELP! Broken Lower Jaw?!?!

    Thank you! Please tell us what you might try. We’ve called the only vet within 100 miles who handles chickens and she said there was nothing she could do. Having said that, this vet is an idiot and we would not trust her with any of our chickens anyway. We tried that last year and she was...

    HELP! Broken Lower Jaw?!?!

    She has no other wounds on her at all. We’re on thinking she may have crash landed from roosting in a tree. Most of our hens are molting right now.

    HELP! Broken Lower Jaw?!?!

    We walked out this morning and found Ruby walking around normally...but with what looks like a horribly painful BROKEN LOWER JAW. The skin is torn on the left side of her beak and her lower jaw just hangs open and flops about. Is there any way to save her?

    Can chickens eat fox meat?

    Do you eat meat? I ask because clearly the ANIMALS belong here and WE DON'T. We've taken over their natural habitats, destroyed entire species and forced others to relocate. So, if you eat meat, ESPECIALLY factory-farmed and torturously-raised meat, you are speaking in hypocrisy. If you're a...
