    I'm back! Again! =)

    Hi all, I apologize for not returning since that day of my post. I didn't realize the pics didn't go up. Well, the hatchery bebes are almost 19 weeks old and there was some suspense over whether my #1 fave Black Austrolorp was going to be a hen or a rooster. I kind of knew early on that our...

    I'm back! Again! =)

    ALOHA ALL! =) Happy New Year & Kung Hee Fat Choy! :) I haven't been here since we got our last 2 hens (Velma and Daphne), I think. We lost Daphne last year as well as our senior citizen dog (she was 13yrs) and our senior cat (she was 19yrs). So it was a tough time. But this Spring, the...

    Budget coup, converted dog house. Please don't laugh, lol, but any advice is appreciated.

    I like it and think you're so lucky to have had the dog house! That's the tough part to me. If anything, I'd say add some footage to the run, that way they can be a good distance away if they want to be. Good job!!!

    Hi everyone, I have a confession to make - I posted about this in the Emergencies section but didn't mention anything here b/c I was so embarrassed! But here goes... The collage below is of my Production Red & my White Leghorn the day we got them. They were 3 days old. The very next...

    4-day old chick & a cat =(

    Hi! Thank you for responding, I'm sorry I didn't respond earlier! My little one is hanging in there - her eating & drinking have not slowed down (except last night when she swallowed a stringy part of the gauze - had to pull it out) & her friend doesn't seem to be picking on her too much...

    4-day old chick & a cat =(

    I consulted via phone with my hatchery but am feeling very guilty & very on-edge about the treatment I've been giving to my little girl. Somehow, with all precautions & 4 of us sitting in the same room as our 2 chicks, none of us saw one of our cats on the bin & how in the world she worked a...

    2013 = Start of a new flock

    Hi everyone, I don't know if anyone remembers me, it's been over a year I think, since I've been on here. It took me a couple of years to get over the loss of Sienna, Tallulah & Chick-Chick & I didn't think I'd take on anymore backyard hens again. I took in a rescue bantam chick but she's...

    ALOHA from Honolulu, Hawai`i! Our journey into the world of chickens began in Spring of 2008 when my daughter was in preschool. Little did I know that their egg hatching project would lead to one of the most interesting & fun experiences ever! I picked up my daughter one day from school after...

    Sienna is gone =(

    Ole rooster wrote: Is it possible their time just ran out? I would think just because some chickens live to five or longer doesn't mean all do. No, their time did not run out. They were living a "life of luxury" so-to-speak, no predators, endless food, lots of grey dove friends, and of...

    Sienna is gone =(

    Hi everyone, A few weeks ago I checked in here to share that our Tallulah had passed away of unknown causes. Now I'm back to share that her sister, Sienna, passed today also of unknown causes. I am sad beyond tears and distressed beyond words. Both of them were about 3-1/2 years old and...

    Question about what to do now with one hen =(

    Hi everyone, I wasn't sure where to post this so if this is the wrong place, I hope someone can move it to the correct place... The other day we found Tallulah on the bottom of the coop, her face in the dirt, making strange noises. By noon the next day, she had passed away. I'm...
