    I've really only had 1 broody that we let go with eggs under her a few times. They will come out to poop, after a long, long time. You WILL know when. Trust me. The volume and odor will tell you. They will eat and drink, but not much. First round with our banty frizzle/ showgirl-- we were...

    My naked neck rooster is not nice!!

    All roosters have the potential to be "mean", when they are trying to defend territory and their flock. My roosters have all been great- but we have no children, dogs, or other smaller-than-adult sized animals. A 5 year old is small enough to be percieved as a threat, in that they are the same...

    I am a bad friend :-( More Cancer talk.

    I don't really have any words of advice, as I can't picture what I'd do in your situation. I can tell YOU, that YOU are NOT a bad friend. A bad friend wouldn't care enough to seek out ways to work through this with her.

    Crazy acting chicken - please help

    Unless someone is acting sick, I'd definitely get her back in with the others. Chickens act weird-- wait til they start laying!!!! They do run around and squawk, and I have a few that jump in and out of the nests, still hollering, facing all different ways. All it takes is the wind...

    Help Us Design The Next BYC "Chillin' With My Peeps" Shirt

    I'm not much of a creative mind, but I do want to add my 2 cents to the sizing-- the BYC University T's came in 4x, and the next line didn't. Though I fit a 3x, they shrink so much over time, they become unusable. My 4x BYC University T's ( of which I bought SEVEN) are well worn, logos...
