    I have recently acquired one male and two female runners. They are prolific egg layers. One has set on the nest twice. The first time the eggs got taken and broken I twos each night. Not sure what it was. She immediately began laying again, set on the eggs and has hatched 7 out of ten...

    Not sure when HennyPenny can be put back with the other chickens

    I never got back to thank you for the input/help with doctoring Henny last year. She survived and feathers grew back. She is going strong. She is now Queen Henny, the eldest of the flock and the most dominant now. She stands her ground, is the smallest hen too. That was a two time attack...

    Sick 1 1/2 year old scissor rooster.

    I just lost my scissorbeak "No Face" three days ago. She was 6 months old. Every old timer I came across told me she would not survive due to respiratory, eating, parasite, etc. Something would happen. I thought I defied the odds by 5 months. I was so proud after clipping her beak, feeding...

    Cross beak help!

    I have a 4 month old Aracauna with scissor beak. She was fine until a week ago and started acting erratic. I believe other chickens have ostracized her. She is a loner. I caught her and caged her to fatten her. Also clipped her top beak which helped somewhat since it was severely...

    Er a ER a ERRRRRR, that all too familiar sound when you have too many roosters. Eight out of 18 and soon to be none after my HennyPenny got hurt yesterday. 2011-11-05 Here I am joining the BYC under less than desirable condition because my hen has been hurt, but I hope to utilize this site...

    Fourth Egg With Membrane but no Shell But the Hen is a Good Egg

    What the heck is going on???? I know what chicken but I don't know why. She is 7 months old, healthy, or so I think, has just started laying eggs for the first time and is batting 100% at eggs without a shell! Four eggs so far and all are the same. She gets plenty grains, oyster shell, and...

    Rooster trouble

    What you see is probably what you're going to get. I nearly lost my best hen to a rooster that very same way. He took off her comb and feathers aggressively and other chickens went after her. Luckily I noticed her and was able to nurse her back to health with advice of BYC. Other hens were...

    Question about barred rock hen!

    So far I find the BR's to be most personable. My Henny Penny was a small one with a small comb and she hatched six eggs from which 5 were roosters and all had larger combs and were much larger than the hens in body size. Enjoy them BR's. They were so much fun. The loved people and being...

    Not sure when HennyPenny can be put back with the other chickens

    A week ago I wrote about my egg producing Henny penny being thrashed in the head, comb and wattle by the Aracauna rooster. I brought she and her hen friend to the barn and put them in a stall to separate them from the other 8 chickens until Henny is completely healed. I did however put Henny...
