Hello everyone! One of my Frizzles pooped out a couple roundworms in front of me the other day.
I went to the feed store and got Piperazine Dihyrochloride 53% After reading through some threads though I checked with the vet who said they had Piperazine so I went and got it expecting it to be...
I believe I have a broody sebright. She was in the nesting box all day but I didn't really think much of it as her and my Milles Fleur can sometimes go in and out for hours before laying an egg. It wasn't until I was closing them all up that I realized she was missing. I opened the nesting box...
Hello :) I have a small backyard flock of 3. 1 silver sebright and 2 Milles Fleur D'uccle/ Silkie crosses.
My sebright (Banty) was always the terror of the henhouse but things had been calm for awhile now. My youngest (Lucy) just started laying last week. Out of nowhere 3 days ago Lucy...
While you seasoned chicken keepers will probably think this is the dumbest question ever I am truly at a loss.
Some of you may remember a few weeks ago when I posted looking for thoughts on wether my Milles fleur/silkie cross was in fact a rooster instead of a hen. Well this morning I heard...
Things have gotten awfully crazy in our little coop. I have a sebright who is approximately a year old (I think) who we rescued. I got a "friend" for her a 16 week old millesfleur/silkie cross.
2 1/2 weeks ago when they were introduced (both were "new to us" ) my sebright (Banty) was vicious...
Hello Everyone :) I feel ridiculous asking this but I got a 16 week old silkie/milles fleur cross who is supposed to be a hen. She exhibits no rooster tendencies and seems quite timid. However this morning I noticed one of those long curved tail feathers and so I am worried now. Please forgive...
Hello everyone :) I guess I am a little late to be introducing myself as I have already asked questions here lol. I live on Vancouver Island with my military husband, our 10 year old, 2 shih-tzus and 2 new to us hens.
We have Banty who is a silver laced sebright who we rescued and her new...
Hello! I just want to thank everyone who has helped me these last 2 days with my chicken rescue questions :) Tomorrow our coop is arriving. I have also located a small hen to go with our small banty who is currently in the dog kennel (Dont panic it was only overnight!)
My question...this is a...
So without going into it all I will have a small banty hen in the next hour or so. We had talked of having chickens for quite awhile and were in the planning stages when this situation occurred. We do not have a coop. we have nothing infact because it was all so unexpected. To make this more...
My neighbour has 2 roosters and a female duck. I know that is odd and it is a long story but they are all very happy. Their coop is like fort knox and I can't seem to find how this breach was made but I have a rooster in my yard. I leave my sliding doors open so my 2 shihtzus can go in and out...
