I have a Buff Orpington hen and she won't leave the nesting box. She sits in there all day and tries to stay in at night but I take her out and put her with the rest of the flock. There aren't any eggs underneath her either and she has her feathers all fluffed up. She is about 8 or 9 months...

I have a hen who made a nest in a bush and is sitting on eggs in it. I put a roof and a wall on where she's sitting so that she could keep sitting during the night but and when I came out to close up my chickens for the night she had gone in with the other chickens so I took her and put her...

My four pullets keep sneaking up behind each other and plucking feathers out of each others buts and eating them. Their food is supposed to be high in protein so I don't know why they're doing this.

When I first joined I didn't do a new member introduction. This is super late but better late than never. I have 10 chickens and am getting 3 more in April. I love archery, dirt biking, swimming, and most of all surfing. I love surfing sooooooooo much. I'm a kid and I'm glad that I'm not the...

I want my hen to sit on some wooden eggs for two weeks so that I can switch them with chicks. Will she know that the eggs are fake and not sit on them? How do I switch the eggs for the chicks?

3 of my pullets are not going inside to sleep. Instead they are trying to sleeping on the top of their coop. My other pullet goes inside at night but those three don't. How can I fix this?

Does anybody know what plants chickens can eat and what plants they can't eat?

I've had roosters before, but they've all been really mean. I am thinking about getting a rooster in a while but It has to be a nice one or else I have to give him away. I see articles on here and people say that their roosters never peck at people and aren't aggressive except to predators. I...

I've started building aa new coop and I think it needs some color. I don't have pictures yet but I'll post some if they're asked for but I'm going to describe it. It kind of looks like a rabbitt cage made of wood so far and there are lots of plants around it. The light green is the color of...

I just got a new pullet and when I brought her home and put her in the coop with the others, they started pecking at her so I took her out and put her in the brooder. I'm nervous that she'll get lonely and die. Is there any way to prevent that other than buying another chicken?

My hen, Mohawk, is about a year old and she just went through her first molt. Her comb, earlobes, and wattle got pale and today when I was watching her I saw that she couldn't stand up right! She falls when she stands up and trips when she runs. She was just standing still and in 30 seconds...
