    Limping chicken!!!

    Help! I have a hen that is limping and I don’t know why. Yesterday she seemed fine. For now we are allowing her to continue free-ranging with the flock, as usually this time of day they just lay around in the shade anyway. Details: Cuckoo Maran 5 years old Hasn’t been laying for maybe a year...

    Raising My First Batch of Bantam Chicks!

    That’s awesome! 😎 Kinda how it went for my girl Dot. And also the fact that she had a dot on her head. 😊 You can see in the first picture I posted of them as chicks in their box on this forum: Scuby is the d’uccle in the bottom right corner (literally) and Dot is right above him. So cute to...

    Raising My First Batch of Bantam Chicks!

    Thank you. 💕 Oh yeah, I forgot to mention another loss (the first one, actually) which was my girl Millie (guess what breed she was 🤭) who just disappeared one day. I’m guessing she was taken by a hawk. That was easier for me to handle than my Silkies, though, because their heads were mauled...

    Raising My First Batch of Bantam Chicks!

    Chick update! They are no longer free ranging with our standard hens because 2 of my Silkies got killed by some animal (including my favorite Silkie: White Toes). 😭 So I had to do some unexpected payments to buy them a coop and run and THEN a run extension (the gray one). Oh and that white tub...

    Raising My First Batch of Bantam Chicks!

    Sounds like you had a rough time! 😥 I hope you’re doing better! Wishing you luck! 🍀 Yes, those cochins are hilarious! Mine are very personable and always are the first to waddle up to me. 😁 And they’re so fluffy! That’s a funny comparison. 😆 I love it.
