    Stray Rooster

    Do you have any spare fencing or a large wire cage? Even a wire gate that he can't fit through would work. They way you talk, you have fencing all around your yard? For him, I think your best bet on catching him would be to set up a chicken trap. That is, if you're quick enough on your feet to...

    Oh, that's funny. At a glance, it almost looked like she was holding it. 😂 Cute picture, by the way!

    BYC Coming Across As Spam?

    This isn't the first time this has happened. It happened awhile ago and some of our moderators helped me troubleshoot it though we couldn't recreate it. That was awhile ago and I hadn't had any further issues until recently. I have push notifications enabled on my tablet, and one of the...

    Poor girl, but congrats to her molting. Keep taking pictures of her! She looks like she's losing them fast.

    Stray Rooster

    Ok, so for some basics of quarantine, or at least on caring for a quarantined bird, you want no contact from the bird in quarantine to the birds who are not. You should take care of your flock first, then take care of the rooster. That way you're not introducing anything he has to your hens (but...

    Stray Rooster

    I've had chickens that I've separated in a shed like that. How big is the cage and do you have more than one? Something you can do, is during the day (if it's not raining), you can put him in the cage outside where he's close enough to see the hens, but far enough away to not spread anything to...

    Can chickens have neurological differences?

    The older almost sounds like a cockerel. Breed can be a factor as well. I've definitely have had some chickens way more intelligent than others, and some of those showed that as a chick. Of everything you've described here, there's nothing I see as too much of a concern. It does sound like...

    Murderous chickens attack & kill crow - is this normal?

    Piranha flock! I've never witnessed anything quite like this, but there is that occasional video that pulls up of a mother hen attacking a hawk who was trying to get her chicks. I did have a flock that I nicknamed "Piranha Flock" for every new chicken they saw they pounced on and would have...

    Stray Rooster

    If you have predators, he can't be left outside. He might roost near your hens though, and you might be able to catch him that way. Do you have a dog cage that you could set up in a garage or basement? That could be a place to keep him until his quarantine is over. Personally (this is bad...

    Review by 'Lacy Duckwing' in article 'Do Chickens Like to be Petted?'

    Interesting article and I liked reading the science behind chickens and affection. There is a little bit of redundancy in this article, but otherwise an educational read. One thing though, with roosters, even if they're not fluffing up or showing signs of aggression, one should never put their...

    Stray Rooster

    If nobody else claims him, I'd keep him. He's a pretty rooster. Quarantine him for two weeks to 30 days first and check him for mites. You should go around asking all your neighbors if they lost him. He shouldn't hurt your girls, but if he's carrying disease, that'd be a problem. He looks fairly...

    Seventh Day Slumber is pretty good. I saw them in concert once. I'm just hearing about Demon Hunter, so I know nothing about them. What about Skillet?

    We got kittens (more of them!)

    Sounds good. How many have you had? I had four litters and about thirteen kittens. The mothers were all abandoned and were supposedly all fixed, then we got the surprise of them all having litters. I was able to successfully trap them all and bring them inside. (If you need any advice on...

    Aww!!! They're so cute!! :love:love:love The orange and white one looks like one of the ones I had this year. If you still need help finding homes for them, I can give you a phone number of someone who might be able to help you. They took a few of my cats and kittens after they were weaned...
