    How do I get my hens to drink water?

    I don't use a store bought waterer, but I just you a short round tin can. I clean it almost everyday. I don't put anything at all in the water. The waterer is right next to the food and they eat the food just fine.

    How do I get my hens to drink water?

    My hens will not drink water at all. They will only drink the water that I water my plants with. They don't drink it from their waterer. They only drink it from the ground. Now that it's winter all of my crops are harvested so they don't drink water anymore. They don't drink water in the summer...

    Agressive Chickens- New flock

    My chickens are very agressive! My rooster is biting everyones heads and making them scream! It's blood-hurling! There is one chicken I am not sure about because it bites everyone and even pulled a father off my rooster! I thought the rooster was going to get mad but he didn't! He just yelped...

    Chickens who HATE snow?

    No worries! I'm pretty sure that chickens hating snow is pretty normal. My chickens hate snow and they only walk on the snow when one of the braver one comes out and walks. They run on the snow though. If the snow is hard they are not afraid to walk on it but if the snow is soft and they can...

    My chicks "sneeze" sometimes but it might not be because of the rain.

    Hawks!

    Even though my username is ownerof7chicks, I only have 5 chicks now. I made my account before 2 of my chicks died. My first chick, I'm not sure if it was a hawk. I was going to put the in their coop but we just couldn't find it. I think a hawk came and snatched it up and took it away to eat. My...

    Chickens standing in the rain

    Is this normal? When it starts raining, the chicks don't go anywhere. They just get wet. I'm not sure if chickens can catch colds, but I don't want anything to be wrong with my chicks.

    My chickens fight and charge at each other! HELP!!!

    Well I'm not totally sure of their gender yet so I want to make sure that it is the correct gender before I make any sudden acts. If I really have 3 Roos and 2 hens, I will consider your answers.

    Yeah! My chicks survived too! We don't have a heating lamp in their coop but they still survived!
