    Do you think she is 1/2 Silkie, 1/2 Serama or ???

    She has 5 toes like a Silkie, but is just starting to show a couple of small feathers on her feet. The other Silkie mixes had very different feet, a different color with lots of feathers. The serama roo was white with mixed colors...not sure what that is called. I was told she was a cross with a...

    Do you think she is 1/2 Silkie, 1/2 Serama or ???

    This little hen is the tiniest chicken I have ever had. She is over 3 months in this picture. I know she is 1/2 Silkie, and I am thinking 1/2 Serama. The lady I bought her from had a Serama roo running around. She got a little growth spurt last week, but is the size of my other chicken that is...

    Is this thing coming after my chickens?

    Well, now I have 2 in my backyard. So, apparantly I have a roadrunner couple, and I think they are nesting close to my house. And hunting in my backyard. Yesterday, I looked out there and one of them had something in its mouth that I thought was my chicken's head. I chased it thinking it had...

    UPDATE #14 Roadrunner

    Quote: Wish respect, your hen probably wanted the roadrunner's snack for herself! Are your hens tiny bantams? If it were me, I'd leave the roadrunner alone and enjoy the free pest control. If you have chicks, though, I'd keep them confined. She probably DID want what the roadrunner caught...

    UPDATE #14 Roadrunner

    Well, I have seen it all morning in my backyard. It was in my garden earlier. I just heard one of my hens fussing and I went out there and it was close to my back porch and my hen was chasing it. IT HAD SOMETHING IN ITS MOUTH. I thought it was my chicken's head! I chased it, just knowing it was...

    Is it wrong to kiss your chicken?

    Not a chicken kisser...at all. BUT, my daughter just fessed up that she kissed her little hen ONCE. She stresses she did it ONCE.

    Is this thing coming after my chickens?

    Thanks everyone for your opinions. I just went in my backyard and looked out in the field behind my house, AND THERE IT WAS. I saw it earlier today, too. I think it has a nest close by. It really seems to trying to fit in with our little eco-system, rather than destroy it. And I really think...

    Is this thing coming after my chickens?

    Quote: Since tomatillos are not actually unripe green tomatoes, I would think it is fine but I am not totally sure about that. A tomatillo is ripe when it is green, so I think it is OK. But my chickens do not care for them at all. Do you make salsa verde? Here is a quick easy recipe: boil...

    Feeding raw egg and shells?

    Re-visiting this thread. I let my hens eat raw eggs, but they never eat their own eggs on their own. They consider it a treat and I toss on the ground to break it and then they eat it, and then eat the shell throughout the day. I did this because the hens had been eating medicated chick...
