    What is this chicken thinking?

    I've seen my chickens doing this 3 times. One of them was the 2nd biggest hen in with the smallest. The other 2 times I've seen were by the same chicken. Bendi, the biggest hen, who is a light Brahma that is very big and fat, must not be able to reach the 2nd row of nest boxes and when the...

    Daisy a very young chick, 1 of 4 hatched by a broody hen, has been following her mother around. Even as she leads them out of the coop and around the yard. She was noticed only using one leg and hopping, so she has spent the last 3 or 4 days inside with us watching her. We feed her and give her...

    Yeah, in compliance with your predictions, yesterday the first egg was layed by our younger flock by the one and only baby from jester. It was a leghorn x light Brahma. And a side note, bouncer babies are VERY soft and tend to have iridescent feathers. Also, it seems that feathered legs is a...

    Roosters behaving odd with younglings!

    Bouncer chased jester away from the food in the morning. Jester did not have any fresh blood. He went into the forest a bit and called his ladies.

    Roosters behaving odd with younglings!

    I will keep you updated... Maybe Bouncer will calm down. It is bad to have 2 roosters bcuz one will always try to dominate. That's why we wanted 3, but the others were very bad. [/IMG] Might be low quality pics.

    Roosters behaving odd with younglings!

We hatched some younglings from our fav hens and got 16 save a chick chicks from an online incubator clean out. So we had about 30...

    Hawk attack and roosters

    I knew it was a bird of prey that was killing my chickens. I misidentified it at first, thinking it was a hawk as it looked and acted like one. As it swooped around my chickens and perched and watched my chickens and I heard screeches (other hawks apparently). And the reason is mainly that the...

    Hawk attack and roosters

    They are lots of rats and bunnies and squirrels scattered about my property. There are only a few hawks, I used to think the big brown things that would fly extremely low over the younger chickens were hawks about to dive. I think that those are all buzzards. I know of atleast 3 hawks. Two...

    Hawk attack and roosters

    These are not vultures. They are buzzards. And as you guys say, they are not birds of prey. You guys classify them as scavengers. And I have read those documents before

    Hawk attack and roosters

    well the last one I shot wasn't too stinky and the 12g rekt its intestines. Although it was a 50+ft shot. I mean it's hard to judge flying targets. But I definitely want the hawks to leave. Maybe if there are less buzzards to steal what is possibly hawk food, the hawks will be able to just eat...

    Hawk attack and roosters

    And a story for two crows. This morning two crows were flying about in my yard. They ended up in a tree. They seemed to be eating something. Upon further investigation, they had caught a mouse eating chicken food leftover from last night and were eating that mouse. I wish we had more crows. I...
