    What dogs do you use to protect your flock?

    Well to guard chickens, I really would not recommend a dauchshund! I have one and she has killed a chick in the past. She hasn't done it again, although, she's tried. The perfect guard dog, in my opinion is the Australian Shepard. My first dog, named Shelby, used to literally babysit me! I have...

    Dusting for Mites

    Hello all! I'm about to go outside and dust my chickens for mites. I've never had a problem with mites before, but my chickens started dying off one by one and the other day I went to the coop and found my sebright hen dead on the floor with hundreds of mites crawling all over her! I had...

    What is Wrong with my Roosters?

    I have a rooster that has a very cloudy eye. He can barely see out of it. I noticed it when he was about 6 months old. He is almost 2 years old now! His eyes haven't ever been watery like your roosters and whatever it is probably isn't the same but, my point is, that as long as they are behaving...

    Help me write my "need" (a.k.a. "want") list for my coop....

    My dad has already built the perfect coop for my chickens! One detail it has that I love, is window boxes filled with treats that grow for the chickens. Congratulation on your (soon to be) new coop!

    Just ordered Special Assortment from McMurray

    My dauchshund has killed one chick. I have 11 roosters and once they grew up they learned to protect the hens with thier lives. The dogs have never messed with the chickens since. The way I look at it is this: if the dogs can get in, so can other predators and that shouldn't be able to happen.

    Just ordered Special Assortment from McMurray

    I'm sorry you've had a bad day. I haven't ordered thier assortment but, I've orderd from MM hatchery twice. My birds have always arrived healthy and adorable. You should expect a few of them not to make it (2-3 is usually the norm) But it is a fact of life, sad but, true. Good luck with your...

    What is the difference between a blue and a self-blue silkie?

    Thanks for explaining! I really appreciate it!!! So... if I breed a self-blue with another self blue, will I get some black chicks or do they breed true? I'm a little confused with that Thanks for your help!!!
