    well, all 3 cute chicks have now passed due to old age and no new ones due to the new place I live does not allow us to have any. But there is a small group of us trying to change that.

    Broody hen and chicks

    I have a 2 yo hen. She went broody after the passing of her 2 pen mates. I have 4, 2 week old chicks. Can i put them under her at night? Will she see them as hers? She is really defensive of her area. Thanks🐥

    Injured hen

    Sorry to say, she passed that night. The dog did not kill her, she actually badly injured her. I now have just one and 4 babies. We also put in a gate on the top of the deck that the dog cant get through. Wing trimmed also to stop her from going over the gate.

    Injured hen

    We have just cut down some bamboo so we weaving it through the gate to the run so the girls cant get over it and we will be doing a wing trim later tonight. The coop itself is pretty secure, it is just the run that she flew over. As far as the dog, she will no longer be let out without one us...

    Injured hen

    The only issue my dog has had with the chickens was chasing them. Several years ago, one of my other chickens got out and all she did was carry her around in her mouth.

    She got egg bound. I did not know what was wrong. I put a post on my local byc group on FB, but the admin did not even post it so i lost precious time waiting on that before i came back here to check. It was just too late

    Injured hen

    Yes, the dog is responsible, she usually only chases them if they get out of the run. She is usually not friendly unless she is squatting. I think they over bathed her butt too. Her butt was wet and dirty. Cleaned off the best i could but found no injuries. I just got 2 new chicks this morning...

    Came home from a visit and found my Great Dane hiding under the deck, thought nothing of it, as that is where she hides when scared of something. Several hours later when i went to lock the girls up for the night, one was missing. I went and looked under the deck and found her there. She was...

    Her poop is runny, when you feel under her wings is where it is hard, not soft and smush, i will separate her and check her vent
