    Sherlock Holmes Chicken Mystery!

    Calling all Sherlock Holmes out there... Today at lunch, when I went down to the chicken run, a dog cage that was just outside the door of the run was covered in thick red blood. One of my hens had been free ranging around and is thankfully alright, as are all of my other birds. The only clue...

    HI there, It looks like a roo to me. It's comb is very large which would signify that it is a rooster.

    Drakes disapearing

    HI, Thanks. We live right by the ocean. I can't think of any bodies of water apart from the sea. Do you think something would have taken all three of them without leaving any evidence? They are all quite large.

    HI Everyone, I have three free range male ducks. This morning I couldn't find them anywhere.They have been missing for at least 7 hours. I don't have any females. As it is spring time would they just leave to find a partner? They seem to be really happy here. They roam around the yard and...

    Buff can't stand or lift her head. Not able to eat or drink

    The same thing happened to one of my Polish. She was fine one day day and then the next couldn't even lift her head. You are doing the right thing by feeding wet food and water.

    If you don't want to cut their crests another thing to do is you could tie them up out of their eyes. I have done this with my Polish and now see can see a lot better and is a lot happier.

    Russian Orloffs

    Hi everyone, I'm thinking of getting some Russian Orloffs soon. How is their temperament? Are they good with kids? I would be using them as a 4-H project so they would be around people a lot and would have to walk and pose for judges. Do you think that they are too flighty for that?
