    Winterizing the chicken coop

    This will be my first winter with my chickens and I am concerned about keeping them warm. I did install a flat 2x4 for their roost, sealed any gaps for drafts and have a large overhead opening for ventilation.

    I am so confused I think my pullets belly is gurgling

    I know this may sound weird and a little out there, but I always find BYC is the place to ask when it comes to chickens. Four days ago my 20 week old pullet was attacked by a dog in my backyard. Agnus was completely in shock and her comb and wattles turned a purple gray. I rushed her into town...

    How do you read feed tags on Nutrena Brand feed?

    Today I picked up my order of Nutrena Nature Wise Layer Pellets from my local feed store and when I opened it it was more dust then Pellets and full of bugs. I am assuming they give me a very old bag of feed, but I am unsure how to read the tag.

    Pretty sure these 3 Naked Necks are roosters, but I need a second opinion.

    This spring I got three Naked Neck chicks. As they have been growing I have had the toughest time telling their sex. It seems to me that hens of this breed have fairly decent size combs and waddles. Burt the first photo is the only one I am sure of, he has been crowing for well over two months...

    How do I get my chickens to use their nest boxes?

    I am a new chicken keeper and any advice would be so helpful. My girls are getting close to laying age and I was wondering how I encourage them to lay in the nest boxes.

    Naked Neck Turken getting feathers in slow.

    I have three Naked Neck Turken chicks that are 31 days old. Two of them have a significant amount more feathers in then the other one. Is it normal for some to feather faster then the others or should I be concerned?

    Coop Sanitation from prior occupants

    Fortunaltely for me the home I am in came with a garden shed converted to a chicken coop. It made it that much easier for my husband to allow me to get my first 4 chicks. Before they are ready to go outside I have been cleaning and fixing up the place, but I am concerned about disinfecting it...
