    Raising birds on concrete roof?

    Raising pigeons is quite common where i live but its a pain to train them as far as i know. Most fly away and those who dont have their wing feathers cut and then trained to stay. I dont really want to do all that. Edit: pigeon battles are quite common here too so another thing im worried about...

    Raising birds on concrete roof?

    Are you suggesting to put a layer of moistured sand over all of the roof floor? That might not be possible. Also do you mean bushes in flower pots? And sedum is basically just moss right? Correct me if im wrong.

    Raising birds on concrete roof?

    Photos of the coop- It looks quite small in the pictures but its okay size. I will remove the partition fence in between to make it even bigger. The roof- This photo is two years old. I can probably clean up the area to make it bigger. The metal fenced up area is quite big and that acted as...

    Bigger hens pecking smaller hens.

    Ive tried this for a month, no luck. They still attack each other. Its gotten to the point where the smaller ones just run away at their sight.

    Bigger hens pecking smaller hens.

    I have 4 hens, two of them are about 20 weeks and the remaining are about 16 weeks. The bigger ones stay together and the smaller ones stay together. The bigger ones peck the smaller ones whenever they see em. Its not like a small gentle peck its a violent aggresive one. The bigger ones stay...

    I have 2 roosters and 4 hens, is it possible to keep both of the roosters?

    I see, so if i rehome the australorp sexlink and keep the gamefowl there won't be any problems of overmating with 4 hens?

    I have 2 roosters and 4 hens, is it possible to keep both of the roosters?

    There hasn't been any cockfights between our roos yet and its been 2 months. What I'm worried about is roosters killing hens and overmating.

    I have 2 roosters and 4 hens, is it possible to keep both of the roosters?

    I see, he is the calmest of the two though. Never pecked any human or hen aggressively. There is the usual standoff where they open their wings and hackles but other than that he's pretty calm.

    I have 2 roosters and 4 hens, is it possible to keep both of the roosters?

    I see, so I'll have to rehome both of them? That's sad but oh well, it is what it is. :idunno

    I have 2 roosters and 4 hens, is it possible to keep both of the roosters?

    They're both mixes of different breeds. One of em is a 100% gamefowl mixed with old english and one other breed. The other one could possible be a sexlink of an australorp? Im not sure.

    I have 2 roosters and 4 hens, is it possible to keep both of the roosters?

    I have 2 roosters and 4 hens. Is it possible to keep both of the roosters instead of rehoming one? Or will there be conflicts? I really don't wanna rehome either of the roosters to be honest. I really like both of them and it will be sad to see one of them go. Im asking this because I only have...

    Rooster is about 20 weeks old and hasn't crowed once yet.

    My rooster is about 20 weeks old. He hasn't crowed even once yet. I've seen other cockerels try to somewhat crow with their squeakish crows when they're young but my roo is 20 weeks old and he hasn't even tried yet. Same with my other roo, same age and still hasn't tried to crow yet. Is this...

    What was your worst mistake as a chicken keeper?

    Worst mistake of my life: Fed them only cracked corn with a few kitchen scraps. Consequences: They were about 4 months old but they weren't growing fatter and they weren't looking how they were supposed to be. How did I fix it?: I feed them chicken feed now. Since it was a big change in their...
