    Everyone is pulling out eachothers feathers... WHY?

    Well, I think I finally solved the problem, I gave 2 birds away to a lady with a big farm....They were the 2 agressors, I did a lot of watching, I even got a spray bottle and when I would see the attacks I would shoot a stream of water on them, they would stop, but as soon as I left it...

    Everyone is pulling out eachothers feathers... WHY?

    We'll last night we coated all the bald spots with blue cote and put a few dabs of Vicks on each hen with the bald spots, seems to have stopped most of the pecking, well see.

    Well, it's been almost a year since my last post on this subject, the picking has never stopped, I do let them out to free range while I'm out there, they still pluck eachother, they all show signs of being plucked, and I see almost all of them doing some plucking, I'm ready to give up, I've...

    UPDATE on the "Feather Fixer" feed, my 6 hens were pretty pecked, their necks were bare and most of the fuzzy butt feathers were gone, after 1 month on this feed their feathers are mostly all regrown. I HIGHLY recommend this feed, I will keep my birds on it all year as it has many other...

    Caution, string over run can be a mistake!

    I had aviary netting over the outside corral/run for my chooks cause there are Hawks in the area, well as the leaves fell it kept catching them, got weighted down so I removed it and used string to weave a top layer of webbing to keep the hawks out, I used the fence and made the openings around...

    molting/protein?

    I had a big problem with plucked feathers, I started feeding that Feather Fixer feed and the results are amazing,, the feathers are all coming in nicely. I am going to continue feeding that feed even after their feathers come back. There was an article about the feed earlier this month on this...

    Maybe if you call the company and let them know your interested they will get some closer to you, I think this feed is a great product and will be selling out fast in stores.

    I just bought some at the Big R store in Crawfordsville, IN. I'm anxious to try it, my birds are 6 1/2 months old and have been plucking out some feathers on some of my birds, It all sounds good, I may continue to feed this year round.

    Is my coop the only drama filled one?

    The daily drama is what I love, I worry more about my chickens getting hurt than anyone else in this house...They have a way of moving into your heart...I LOVE my 6 mixed chooks....

    Everyone is pulling out eachothers feathers... WHY?

    They were terrible today, my poor BR is taking most of the picking, she has a complete blue coat neck now, I think I'll rename her blue beard. I got a squirt bottle of water tonight and I nailed the ones that are doing the most picking, they didn't like it and stopped, but I can't stay out...
