    Help! Hens aggressively attacking other Hen

    Ok so I have 6 hens and recently I noticed that one of my Hens (one of my Blue Cochins) was staying in the nesting box and will not come out. My first thought was that that she just could not lay an egg but after several days I decided to take her out and put her in the run with the rest of the...

    I can't believe how hard it is to get rid of a rooster. I am in livermore and have a beautiful Ameraucana Roo that needs a good home. I have becomes attached to him because he is the friendliest as well as the most beautiful of the lot. If anyone out there in the general vicinity of the east...

    raising Chickens is for the Birds

    Well I am just about ready to put a bullet through my puppy's head but I think my wife would kill me. We have a 5 month old Rat Terrier mix puppy that seems to think that the chickens are toys. Yesterday (my fault) I left the door to the coop open after cleaning it and let the chickens free...

    The building of... {no name yet} - let the *fun* begin! VERY pic heavy!

    Don't worry, I don't think that you are talking to yourself about your coop. It is a wonderful coop and I think that most are very jealous of what you have created. As for Jetdog's response I am sure that little slot below is for ventilation.

    Help! I need to know if this is a Rooster or not.

    So I am new to the whole Chicken thing but so far it has been an experience, some good and some bad. The good part is I love what they bring to the house and family as well as look forward to having eggs in the near future. The bad is loosing one to my puppy who seemed to think that they are...

    Now I'm mad

    Blood and guts and to make it worse I caught him in the act again yesterday morning with another Chick in his mouth. This time I was able to stop him before he did to much damage. Looks like now I am going to have to be much more careful about letting them roam. I can't afford emotionally to...

    Found this coop on Craigslist....

    Personally looks like it is going to need more work than what you want to pay for. KEEP LOOKING! JMHO

    Now I'm mad

    I feel your pain. Last night we lost our first Bantam and she just happened to be my favorite and my daughters chick. We thinks that it might have been the dog since we have a Rat Terrier that we left home with our Molly girl (chocolate lab). Very disappointing but I feel that is was my fault...

    This is Penny

    She is no more than 7-8 weeks old and is the friendliest of the bunch, although I do have one very large Dark Bantam named O'Hara, that is probably a week or two older and is just a love bug.

    This is Penny

    I am a big fan of the Big Bang theory so I decided to call a couple of my girls Penny and Bernadette. This is Penny, she is athe sweetest of the chick that we have and will always come to you. I would definately suggest having more Ameracana's in the flock.

    What is the flooring in your coop.....

    I used 12"X12" Linoleum squares from Lowes over a primed OSB on the floor and the poop board and it works great. It is a bit slippery on the feet of the chooks but nothing a layer of sand won't take care of.

    Pictures of your home-made coops and runs!

    Well Tom, I think you take the cake for the best Coop around. I thought my Coop was pretty fancy but you beat me by a mile. Well done and all the little accoutrement's make it just that much better. You are either a contractor or just coop obsessed like me as well. Did you do anything to...
