    Duck Mama is confused and weak!! :(

    First time duck mama (plus, my first time with a broody duck!) She has only been on the nest for about a week, and she was not on her nest for most of the day. We thought, she may have gotten attacked, because she wasn't there for some time. We took the eggs and put them under a very broody...

    Official BYC Poll: The Worst Predator

    Interesting...I have lost birds to Hawks, Coyotes, Fox, Turkey Vultures...even had a Hereon sit scoping my chickens out. But I have never lost a bird to a Raccoon that I am aware of! Knock on wood! Colette I make Chicken Saddle styles: Regular, Flared, and Detachable! More expensive, but...

    Official BYC Poll: The Worst Predator

    I couldn't have said this better myself! Very aggravating! Thankfully, we have a dog that will bark at them, and they think twice when looking at my chickens! Colette I make Chicken Saddle styles: Regular, Flared, and Detachable! More expensive, but with heavy denim/Duck canvas, and they...

    What would scalp my chick?

    First off, I am very sorry you lost 2 birds! :hugs It doesn't sound like a rooster, to me. Chickens will go nuts over blood, but I have never seen them go for another chicken's head (unless they don't know the chickens at all, and they view the chicks like invaders). At 6 weeks, the chicks...

    Hello, I will finally introduce myself after 3 years lurking!

    I have been part of Backyard Chickens from the very start of having chickens the spring of 2014. We started out with 21 Buff Orpington, and 5 Easter Egger chicks. We live on a small farm, just outside of Olympia, Washington, and love our animals. Chicken math quickly took over and adding a...

    Ok to feed raw hamburger meat?

    I have fed my chickens raw meat...mostly accidental though...I was giving a snack to my cat, and the chicken (Missy, a Buff Orpington) came up and stole the piece of steak out of the cats mouth! I didn't even consider the chicken doing this..neither did the cat! No one got hurt, and the cats...

    Comment by 'AthenasOwl' in item 'transylvanian naked neck (black)'

    I have never experienced frost bite or any cold intolerance. These are wonderful birds that are all around very durable as well as loving! Proof? They were created in Germany/Transylvania, where they have very cold winters. I highly doubt that they would have been popular or even created...
