I just put her in a cat carrier with pine shavings and a blanket over it but took the door off so hopefully she realizes to stay in. Although I was just out there in the coop doing that and it’s definitely warmer than outside. I do have an old dog crate but it will only fit in the run. I was...
Hi all,
My 7 month old speckled Sussex is limping. I noticed yesterday a little bit but it is definitely much worse today. It looks bruised and I don’t see anything resembling bumble foot but these are my first chickens. She’s not laying yet. Was eating and drinking. But than just standing...

Ugh that’s my favorite one! I’m keeping him til I hear a crow. We have no chicken ordinance in my town so I wonder if I could fight to keep him? I’m very close to my neighbors though and one already told me I better not get a rooster
