    Chicken etiquette?

    Well, this makes me feel much better. Watching FB reels and other things, you'd think chickens are as cuddly as kittens! This is a relief, maybe they're just meant to admire and not really touch lol

    I love chickens, but...

    Uh yeah, that would get me a little fed up too.

    Chicken etiquette?

    Hello wise chicken tenders, I am hoping someone can give me some experienced advice on chicken etiquette, from their POV. Please excuse my ignorance, I've owned every animal but chickens - other than a rooster when I was a kid that acted like a puppy and never had any issue with being touched...

    Nervous at dusk

    I know this is an old post but its very reassuring - my four 4-month old pullets go into a panic at dusk in a brand new build coop they've been in for 2 months. In and out of it all day, they have 6 fans in it that they all love to sleep in front of, 2 exhaust fans, and all the things that...

    What kind of dog do you have!?

    Currently have a male colby pit (sweetest dog Ive ever known), a female catahoula, a female Antolian shepherd puppy, and a male morky (meanest, most fearless, craziest dog Ive ever known). Would love to add a black male Cane Corso to the mix but we don't buy or shop, we get matched by...

    What Dog Breed Do You Want Today!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

    All black Cane Corso puppy with yellow eyes, male, would be my fairy godmother wish today. To add to my existent wolf pack of male colby pitbull, female catahoula, female Antolian shepherd, and male Morky (the meanest toughest one ironically). A black Corso with yellow eyes would match my tiny...

    Chicken behaving badly - I am so over it

    This is really insightful. I am neurodivergent too with Aspergers and some days I feel so ground to the last exposed nerve its unbearable. I have had to mask psychologically all my life being surrounded by extremely extroverted people - family, friends, community - with no tolerance for any kind...

    Please help!! My chicks are freaking out and I have no idea why

    I know this is a few months later, but I am having the same situation and pretty sure its because one of my 10 week old ISA Brown pullets bullies the three others once in the coop at night. Its when all 4 are on the roost bar (just one height) and Im wondering if its because she wants the lower...

    Thank you for sharing your experienced knowledge. So very much appreciated as I'm preparing to brave the Texas heat with chickens for the first time.

    New chicken lady 😃

    Thank you for all this intel! I had planned to buy a TSC coop, but after reading for just 20 minutes, I've decided to hire the builder who did our house to make a real coop - ventilated roof for the heat, the predator proofing, and a long covered run. Thank God for this forum, or I would have...

    Love this, may I use your plans? Been debating about store bought vs custom build coops. Your design solved the dilemma! Thank you 😃

    New chicken lady 😃

    Good day all! Just joining the flock with my newly developed feather fever! I'm sorry, I get corny when I'm excited. I am in deep east Texas and adding 4 adorable Barred Rock chicks to our furred menagerie. We live rurally on 10 acres amongst miles and miles of piney woods. We are deep in...
