    Limping wyandotte - how do I help her lose weight?

    HELP!!! Extremely noisy chickens!

    I had a similar problem with a very noisy RIR, who we couldn't bear to get rid of - she had everything she could possibly want (food, water, snacks, entertainment) and she wouldn't shut up. We eventually figured out that the more we went outside, the more she moaned because she could see us. We...

    Entry 2: Rosie (again) - 6 months old in the photo. She is so sweet and will come running to the back door if she hears you coming out, and will sit on your back and pick any leaves or bits out of your hair <3

    HELP! Her neck was stuck on the hinge

    It’s unfortunate really, We are just heading into spring now (in aus).

    HELP! Her neck was stuck on the hinge

    HELP! Her neck was stuck on the hinge

    Sure, here are a couple of photos…. Generally she gets the whole space but the others wanted to lay so we put the divider in so they could go.
