    Hen has injured leg

    Yes my hen is limping I suspect that she was attacked by a Spotted Gennet a breed of wild cat we get in South Africa.I have seperated her from the other birds as one of the other hens is pecking her continuously.I have also been putting antiseptic on everyday.Have I been doing the right thing?

    Tucking the chicks in at night?

    I usually lock my chickens in a coop because we have a caracal in our area that is known for catching peoples chickens.Its also better for if the weather is bad to keep the chickens content and happy.

    Shelless eggs

    Thanks for all the posts.I think my hen may have become stressed lately due to the fact the the wind destoyed the chicken coop and the chickens now have a tempoary shelter while we build a new coop.

    Comb Discoloration-Help!

    I think you'd better take her to the vet because chickens combs usually change to a dark blueish colour if they have bird flu.Alothough I doubt that your hen is infected with the virus.A vet will also be able to tell you wat is really wrong. Hope She Gets Better Soon
