Please help me.....My nanny bird is not doing good.
I thought she was hot so I brought her inside and put her in front of the ac vent. She breathing is not labored. She has some dried blood that looked like it came from her nose. I dont see any external injuries. Can anyone help my nanny bird...
I'm so sorry GUIENALADY. If I was near you I would be willing to help, cook, clean and take care of the animals. I hope everything gets better for you. You will be in my thoughts and I will send you my prayers.
Well I had a chicken to go broody on me. This is the first time I have had a broody chicken. Since we don't have a rooster I got 3 eggs from a friend. We candled the eggs on day 11. All was good. I candled the eggs again on Sat. All was still good. On Tuesday, day 19 there was a baby chicken, it...
I have an EE hen that lays pale blue eggs. For the last 3 days I have not had a single blue egg. She stays in the nesting box and will get out if I make her. Since spring is here and we are starting a garden I have used my childrens trampoline with chicken wire around it to put them in. So far...

Kids have to be trained. How can you except them to act like they have sence when they are allowed to do whatever they want to at home. Home training goes along way. We started when they were young and we would take them to family friendly places eventually we made our way to the better...

Happy gardening here I come. Yah!!!!
So it's spring time again and I am making way for a garden. I currently let the girls out when I get home from work. They have eaten all the grass from the run and what they could get from the outside. I like to look outside and see my girls running a muck in my yard. That being said....My...
Last summer I had a fly strip in the barn. While cleaning the barn one day one of my hens steps on the strip, not the tack, and she has had a limp every since. It doesn't seem to bother her, she just stays closer to the barn when I let them out to free range.
I will never use them again.
Don't get discouraged. I have raised two groups of chickens. The first acted like my best friends (wild dogs got them). The last hated me up until they started laying eggs. It didn't matter how many treats I gave, how clean I kept the coop, how often I let them out, how much I talked to them or...
