    Neighbor threatening to trap birds

    Sound like she is insane. What she is doing is called theft. She has been trespassing and harassment as well. Get a restraining order?

    All but ONE hatchling has died

    That’s the best idea yet.

    I need advice on how to get rid of chicken lice/bugs!!!!!

    I would burn any existing bedding including the bin. Treat your lawn and get rid of what you threw out on the lawn, burn that. It sounds extreme but if your birds are free range they could get reinfected if they come in contact with that bedding. Lice or mites might have to be treated at weekly...

    Do you have any broody hens that might take in a new baby?

    Duck with bumble foot, please advise!

    Another idea here. I just saw this on Amazon. It might prevent future injury

    Duck with bumble foot, please advise!

    I would isolate her in a large clean dog pet taxi, put foam bandages on both feet. Maybe put a chicken diaper on to keep feces off. I used the foam bandages on rabbits to help heal sore hocks. Found them on Amazon.

    Help me ID my “eagle!” Big girl was pale yellow with black specks as a chick. (Dalmatian like.)

    Looks like Easter egger or could be Americana because of the beard she has. She also had the dark line by her eyes as a baby. They can get quite large.

    11 week old Splash silkie- Gender?

    Hard to tell, but he looks identical to a cockerel that became aggressive towards me when I reached to pet him

    Are there restrictions for movable coops on wheels? That might one way to get out of having to get a building permit. The coop I have looks more like a fancy mobile deer stand

    So far, they run towards me without fear because it usually means food or treats. No aggression. They run away if I reach to pet them
