    Experiencing a heat wave here, super worried about my girls! How do I cool them off?

    Okay awesome I never knew they could leg wade in water I didn't know you could get certain parts of them wet I knew about the feathers so I assumed no part of them could get wet. I was literally just thinking about adding a small fan once I get the two windows put in it. Like attaching the small...

    Experiencing a heat wave here, super worried about my girls! How do I cool them off?

    We live in Illinois and are basically in the city like on the outskirts but its still pretty busy and too many strays and other predators so I'm not able to have them free range so they just have a very large run I built. We have absolutely no trees ): maybe I could make shade like tying a tarp...

    Experiencing a heat wave here, super worried about my girls! How do I cool them off?

    We are experiencing an awful heatwave where I live and my chickens all look miserable. They are sprawled out, beaks wide open, and just panting really fast and really hard. I've been keeping up on their water containers by the hour. I've even gone as far as keeping ice in their water but its...

    Alright awesome, thank you so much for your help. I've been dying to give them treats but I only knew of a few things and want to experiment and expand what I give them like I see everyone else doing on here. And I'm very careful about treating my animals I learned my lesson with my childhood...

    I don't what all fruits and veggies are okay to give your chickens. What else can I give them for snacks? So could anyone help me out with this? Can they have and do they like bananas? Please help.

    Funny looking stool and making odd noises, what should I do?

    Okay so I shouldn't be worried about any of this unless they start acting unusual? Which they've been acting fine and like they always do.

    Garden Snakes found in coop! Help?!

    These are definitely garden snakes. I know my reptiles. I've worked with reptiles, amphibians, small animals (hamsters, guineas etc.), exotic small animals (hedgehogs and so on), for years so they are just the basic, harmless, garden snake that are all over here in Illinois. I'm new to owning...

    Funny looking stool and making odd noises, what should I do?

    I have 9 girls they are only 14 weeks old and I don't know which ones are having these issues or making the noise. I've been trying to find out but anyways I've been finding an almost black diarrhea in the coop. Is this something I should be really concerned about? Also today this is the first...

    Garden Snakes found in coop! Help?!

    Yeah I definitely regret it being on the ground now it'll take a lot of work and labor to get it raised but I'm just going to have to do that. I'm out there everyday with them I can't believe I've never noticed them before. From now on I'm keeping my eyes peeled and looking in and under every...

    Garden Snakes found in coop! Help?!

    Also all of the feed is stored in our shed which our cats access all the time I'm very shocked as to why they would have decided to chose my coop of all places to home her and her babies. Unless mice are somehow sneaking in and eating directly from the chicken feeder but like I said I've never...
