    What's with her feathers??

    Huh. Well I'll have to watch for that! She's the top hen tho so I'm surprised... Normally when she comes up the others move off I've got 32 hens so it seems odd that only two hens would get picked on, and of them the two lead hens 🤔 I don't anymore. The one I did have just died, and he was too...

    What's with her feathers??

    So, Mer has some weird feather things going on... She's always looked a little scraggly (she's my best layer) but this seems odd. She's not moulting, but she does it.. it's like a partial moult? Sometimes it's her head feathers all down to her back, sometimes it's just her butt and tail...

    Frostbite?? Please help!

    Thank you :) Well, I'm not sure if it was just frostbite that did him in but he definitely had it - on his comb. He also lost half of his wattles to it. He might have been dehydrated; the turkey tom who lives in the coop also might have been preventing him from getting water. I found him this...

    Turkey Coop Requirements??

    Thanks. I guess they don't need as much predator and weather protection as chickens then

    Turkey Coop Requirements??

    So I've had my turkeys in the coop with my chickens but... Well, they're HUGE. and getting more aggressive. So I need a coop but I'm not sure what all it needs in it, and what the best way to keep them is - they're friends with the hens but the male does not like the serama rooster. Any...

    My Accidental Obsession Story - with pictures!

    In the spring of 2019, my obsession began. What's funny is originally, I didn't want chickens and my sister did, but now she hates them:idunno We did the 4-H chicken thing. But instead of us getting one set and sharing, we each got one, and ended up with 30 chicks running around! They were too...

    I should have specified sorry!! Rank is whether you are leader of the flock, backup leader, member, new member, or none for loners. Status I meant health, any health issues or anything like that. Sorry!

    Hello fowl friends!! ;)

    It's hard to tell they're pink in the picture; but when compared to a cream or white egg it's more obvious :)
