    Dominique Rooster (5 months) - SE Pennsylvania

    I have a Dominique rooster that is about 5 months old. He is beautiful but sadly he has to go; roosters are not allowed where we live. We are willing to meet you as long as it's not too far. Will post a picture later today.

    What can I do to make my chickens quiet?

    Hi! I'm sorry, I just saw this! We attached it to the ceiling of our coop and ran a wire to a timer for power. Our coop is attached to our garage which has electricity so we just put the timer right inside the garage. Hope this helped!

    Unusually Skittish Chicken

    So we have 7 chickens in all, one of which is a Jersey Giant. She is usually very laid back and sweet, none of the other chickens seem to mess with her and she doesn't mess with them. Shes not at the top of the pecking order but usually has a confidant look. However, she has been molting the...

    What can I do to make my chickens quiet?

    I think because it keeps them from being so bored. They like music just like we do :) We had a radio on a timer to just play in the morning and that seemed to keep them pretty quiet. Its broken now but they haven't been too noisy so we haven't needed to get another one.

    What breeds are these chickens?

    Actually the striped one is a Cuckoo Marans. We've had her for about a year. And the one on the left doesn't really seem like a silky mix. She's bigger and she only has regular feathers. I've heard about top hat chickens--could she be one of those?

    Torn Comb - Advise?

    I just introduced my 5 month old Buff Orpington into my flock of 5 last night. This morning I went to check on her and the back half of her comb was torn off and I think one of my other chickens probably attacked her. I cleaned the wound with water and I have put neosporin and corn starch on to...

    What can I do to make my chickens quiet?

    feather13: We actually just put the radio inside the coop on a pretty low volume. They make noise during the day sometimes but in the early morning it usually keeps them quiet.

When we first got her, she was laying an egg almost every day but recentlyhas been laying an egg everyday for about a week every month or so and then she will just stop. And then about a month later she will do the same thing. She is...

    Weird Eye Disease?

    Its just one bubble. Here are some pictures, sorry they're not very good! That shiny part in the first picture is the bubble. It's just clear if you look at it from the side of the eye. I think the fluid that is in the bubble is warping her vision because she is unbalanced and more clumsy than...

    Weird Eye Disease?

    One of our chicken's eye looks very weird. It kind of looks like there if a bubble of fluid in front of her iris and pupil and everything. None of the other four chickens have anything like it. Please let me know your opinion!

    We live in a neighbor hood and our chickens get very noisy especially in the early morning. Is there anything we can do to keep them quieter?

    Sand vs. Dirt? Are there other terrains for a backyard chicken run?

    We have five chickens in a medium sized chicken coop with a 12 foot run. We just have dirt in our run but a friend of ours uses sand in theirs. She said the sand drains well, is easy to clean, and the chickens can also use it as grit. I just wanted to get a few more opinions. Also, is there...
