    Feathers and Molting?

    Recently I have noticed a sea of buff feathers all over the place. I am no stranger to molting in birds since before we got the chickens we had our last little parakeet still alive.

    Can a hen crow like a rooster?

    Recently I am noticing that one of my four girls tends to sing her egglaying song and ends it differently. Is it normal for her to actually almost crow softly like a rooster?

    Chicken Feathers...

    Hello again SilverMoon here with another little question. Is it normal for chickens to help each other in grooming? I dont know if it can be called grooming but we have all noted that when our black hens are taking a dirt bath their buff sisters come in and yes eat their feathers. Yesterday...

    Hello from here in CA...

    About three months ago or so we acquired four hens. We were told there could be a possible boy in the mix. Its kinda early to tell if they really are as you see we are fairly new to the raising chickens. I actually found this place on a search to see what I could possibly do with recently turned...

    What can I do with our aggressive black hens. Any advice?...

    About two or close to three months ago my mother came home with a box and said it was for me to see. Ok so I was still trying to guess what it was before she would come inside and show me. I didnt really expect it to be what they were until she showed me. Most recent we had lost our final little...
