    Rooster Behavior Crowing

    On a side note. If I take the dominate roo inside my submissive roo starts up a crowing storm!! I don't know if it is because he misses him or if he is happy to be king - but it is a really dramatic change.

    Rooster Behavior Crowing

    My two roosters tend to be the same as yours. Our dominate roo crows a lot and the submissive one hardly ever. I do notice that the dominate roo crows SO MUCH MORE when he is locked in the coop/run vs. when I give him free range in the yard. I mean he crows a little as soon as I let him into...

    Bad mother?

    I'm sorry that happened... I don't have any reason what could cause this, but hopefully someone else more experienced than me will know. Sounds awful.

    Mean roo?

    I agree with the others on here - that sounds like mating. If you're worried about her feathers you could always try a hen saddle. I purchased mine from www.hensaver.com My girls hated wearing them at first, but now they don't care about having them on at all. I know it saves their backs a...

    Finally not broody!

    My little hens have been fruitlessly broody for weeks! Today one of my girls laid and egg!! I'm so happy They really had me worried about them... It is too hot for them to stay 'cooped up' all day.

    Losing another hen to this awful heat

    Aw! I'm so sorry to hear about your misfortune. I lost a girl to heat stroke last month. It was really difficult and I've been anxious about them ever since. We purchased one of those 'personal misters' that attaches to a garden hose and turn that on for them to hang out in. Really though (I...

    Thought Caroline Was Dead

    This blasted heat has me so worried! I lost one of my girls to heat stroke last month and I've been upset and anxious ever since. I'm so glad your girl recovered! The only thing I've found that keeps them cool and hydrated is frozen watermelon - They go CRAZY for the stuff. I've even found...

    Chicken on my stovetop!!

    Haha! Your girl is sillier than mine fishnet! My girl was perched on an electric coil grate - yours just went for the smooth glass. That's hilarious - maybe she was hot and thought that smooth surface would cool her off? Little did she know the purpose of the stove... good thing you warned...

    Do you make things for your chickens?

    I love your Henny Penny Banner! So cute! I make blog posts about my flock - Does that count? I like to tell stories and show pictures of their funny antics. I knew I would enjoy them, but I had no idea they would be so entertaining.

    We lost all our girls :(

    Oh I'm just so sorry! Losing your beloved friends is so hard. *hugs* When I lost one of my girls to heat-stroke last month I cried and cried. I almost considered taking a day or two off work - but decided to press on. Not sure that was a good idea. At first, I considered not even keeping...

    I caught him loving the chickens!!

    This thread is hilarious! My husband was not really excited when I told him I wanted to get hatching eggs and start up a backyard flock. I got the impression he was dreading it and only humoring me hoping it wouldn't mean too much work for him. Now, he admits that he loves them. He frets...

    Chicken on my stovetop!!

    My silly hen Sepia decided to perch on my stove-top last night. Cutest thing ever! I brought her inside to put her Hen Saver back on and she hopped right up on the stove - happy as could be. Chickens are so funny! I never know what to expect from them - I just had to share. You can see the...
