    After Christmas I would like to do a block swap. Update first post

    I am sorry to have to let you all down. I have come into some crazy problems at my house with my family. I know that none of this is an excuse, but I am unable to finish the blocks I promised to make. Any other time would have been great, but my mother was injured at work and has not been...

    Plymouth Rock thread!

    my rocks are about 23 weeks old now. This is my first time ever owning chickens and am trying to be patient waiting for the eggs...could anyone give me an idea of when they may start, like some signs that it's getting close or something like that. It has been really cold here and I am thinking...

    young hen maybe blind?

    thank you for the replies. they have helped ease my mind about her a little. She is super sweet and seems healthy other than the blindness thing. We'll just keep an extra eye on her when she is let out to free range, Im worried a predator could sneak up on her. But I guess that is also part...

    What could attack a hen remove much of its feathers and not kill it?

    Mrs.Puff : They molt precisely when the weather turns cold. Are there feathers all over the run? That is absolutely not true about owls. I am a former Dept. of Natural Resources employee, and I can guarantee that is ridiculous. The only reason an owl might "pluck" feathers is because it...

    What could attack a hen remove much of its feathers and not kill it?

    In our area owls do that to chickens. An old farmer told me that they will pluck it one night and come back the next night to kill and eat it. This is the reason when we made our run we covered it. to keep un-wanted critters out. Im sorry your poor chicken has been plucked. Hope you...

    Official BYC Poll - Are Chickens Easier or Harder To Raise Than....

    i think that my chickens are a little more work that our other pets (2 dogs and 1 cat) But in the end they are giving eggs and all so we should have to work at it a little more right.

    Chickens are amazing

    I am so glad I found this post. I was sure I was losing my mind. I moved my chairs from the deck out to the coop(well just outside the coop) So I could sit there and watch them all evening while they scratch and peck around the yard before going to bed at night. It really is so calming...
