    My dogs and chickens

    WHAT!??? How did you do that?? My German Shepherd kills my chickens at any chance he gets!! How did you go about teaching yours not to chase and kill them? It's amazing that you were able to accomplish that!

    Idaho?

    Anyone here raise bunnies outside all year?? I have been thinking about getting one or two bunnies as pets, not meat or fur. They would live outside 24/7, 365 days a year (being indoor is not an option for me). One breed I've been thinking about is the Silver Fox; because I have heard that they...

    Breed

    The black one on the left looks like A Cuckoo Marans to me. The reddish orange one next to it seems like an Olive Egger. The third one on the left looks to be a Faverolle? That last one is kind of a wild guess, not gonna lie.

    Is it normal for "nice" pullets to peck at me??

    My adult hens will do this too! So maybe it's just a pullet thing? Maybe they are just young and aren't yet very confident.

    Got any idea what color eggs these hens will lay?

    I have 6 pullets, all are about 10wks old. The breeds are Lavender Orpington, Black Australorp, Olive Egger, Blue Laced Gold Wyandotte, Dark Brahma, and Cuckoo Marans. They are all from the Farm Store and I'm wondering what color egg they will all lay. I know what color Olive Eggers lay...

    Please help! Who laid this egg?? I don't have white egg layers...

    Oh no, I never toss them! I cook and bake often enough to use them up, especially because I don't have very many layer at the moment. Also, other members of my family eat eggs plain, I just know them well enough to know they weren't going to eat that odd looking egg (despite it being perfectly...

    lost a brown leghorn hen & 4 chicks to a snake (warning, dead hen pix)

    Oh no, I'm so sorry for your losses! I wasn't aware that snakes will sometimes go after adult chickens. If I were you, I would get another chick or two for the lone survivor to be with and raise them inside to prevent any future problems, since I assume you don't have any other hens that would...

    Is this sexing method true??

    I found this as I was doing a bit of research on how to sex chickens, but it seems like a really weird thing to be true... I get the feeling it is not actually reliable, but it is interesting. What are your thoughts? Video:
