    Barred Rock Rooster Free

    Must live in Western MA area and be able to pick up the rooster. No shipping or deliveries. He has begun to crow and we can't keep him in our neighborhood. Also the hens are pecking at him, and we want to find him a good home!

    Tree Fell on Coop:(

    Quote: Thanks. It has taken a while for me to develop my positive attitude, but I swear things always seem better when I am positive about them. And my family is lucky, it has been the summer of, "close calls." The coop is rebuilt, so that my chickens have a safe place to ride out Irene.

    Do you think a 10' roost will be long enough for 12 chickens?

    I made more than a foot of space per chicken, which was unecessary, they all snuggle and cram into one third of the roost anyway...

    Tree Fell on Coop:(

    Quote: It's crazy how much our lives have been changed this year due to weather. I mean everyone in our area, it has changed us all, we are all a lot more on edge since the tornadoes. Thanks for the well wishes everyone. My family (animals included) are all so lucky. A lot of bad things...

    Tree Fell on Coop:(

    We just finished our beautiful coop about a month ago. I got a call from my neighbor last night (I wasn't home) saying a tree fell on the coop! I was so scared that something happened to my chickens!!! My hubby and I jumped into the car, and his best friend grabbed his chainsaw and followed...

    poll: are you legal or an outlaw?

    Not sure! Pretty sure we are legal. I called town when I got my PBP, and they said, "We don't have any ordinance against pigs, so I guess go ahead!" Plus, my neighbors have chickens, horses, and cows. None of which are on"farms" all backyard animals on less than 2 acres, some on less than 1...

    chicken overheating

    I use the hose with sprayer on the "mist setting" Works great for me! If you have really high water pressure, I wouldn't turn the faucet on all the way though. Sorry for the delayed response.

    Who keeps a chair in or near the coop?

    I end up sitting on the ground just outside my run. I can watch my Chickens for hours. I guess moving a chair out there is the next logical step!

    Chickens and the heat!!

    My chickens hold their wings out from their bodies, and keep their beaks open and seem to be "swallowing air" when they are too hot. I used the mister setting on my hose to cool them down, and make sure their water is fresh and cool for them! They seem to be better almost immediately after...

    Going to bed.....chickens are not the brightest bulbs....

    Quote: My husband read somewhere to keep them in for a week, or even up to two weeks. We were able to do this since the chickens first went out in May when the weather was not so hot. We have never had a problem with them going in at night, never had to put them in ourselves. Now every night...

    Does your local tractor supply have chicks?

    Tractor Supply in my area only had them at Easter time too. I got mine in mid May from a Feed Store.

    i want to see pics please :)

    Yes, pigs wag their tails when they are happy, just like dogs, But the "piggy mohawk" is a different story. It goes up when pigs are: happy, content, scared, or upset. But I can tell when it means certain things based on what's going on around him. Like if I am scratching his belly and his...
