    Keeping a turkey to protect chickens?

    If raised from chicks together, will a tom turkey protect a flock of chicken, or is it a dangerous, bad idea because they are different species?

    Should I even try again? I'm scared.

    WARNING. VERY SAD AND POSSIBLY DISTURBING. It's been several years now since I owned my flock, but I remember them all so clearly. Three Silky roos, two Production Reds, a Wyandotte hen, two Copper Marans roos, and a Black Giant. All so beautiful, friendly, and lively, until someone...

    Holy...please, I need comforting.(I'm the one who had a bird who lost a leg)

    First off, the heck is up with the forum layout? Am I the only one seeing the whole thing going to the right? A few people know me as the person who had a young wyandotte who lost a leg. You know, it looked like it was just clearly sheared off. And I was in absolute shock today. I went out...

    How do you bandage a hen?

    From the same person whose wyandotte hen randomly lost a leg. I'd like to keep her around the house to keep a closer eye on her, but we have blow flies and fruit flies who will lay eggs in her wound. I dislike the thought of taping feathers, and I don't exactly have any band-aids that I know...

    IMMEDIATE HELP AND SUGGESTIONS NEEDED.

    Ok, so, I left for two days to go to my fiance's mother's house. I fed and watered my birds and locked up the hen house since this area is big with predators. I just got home and went out to set my birds free and give them a treat. Well, I looked down and realized my little wyandotte hen...

    How do you turn a cowardly little boy into a proud, confidant roo?

    I have a head of nine birds. Three hens and six roosters. Now they all get along except the one who insists on being top roo, of course, but this one boy in particular is just so easy to pick on. He runs from absolutely everything. Now of course, it's to be expected that he, as a silkie would be...

    When will my birds start laying?

    I have two production reds and a Wyandotte hen, all of which are about two and a half months old and aren't laying yet. They have nest boxes and are pretty stress free.

    Vulturine Guineas?

    Does anyone know much about them? They are super cool and nasty looking and I was thinking about how to obtain a flock or breeding pair.

    What did YOUR chickens do when introduced to other pets?

    So, you have chickens, but what about other pets? Not just others either, but ones that are able to be introduced to chickens without harming them. Dogs, cats, goats, sheep, and any other animal that you can let a bird walk up to without breaking up a fight I mean. What did they do when they saw...

    Is he a roo or not?(Need experienced info about Wyandottes!)

    Ok, I have no picture, but I'll describe him(her?) as thoroughly as I can. It's about two months old now, 6' tall, and has fully feathered. This little bird is supposed to be a rooster, but has a very small, pale comb and hasn't started crowing yet. I have a Jersey Giant about the same age who...

    Ranting. If you have any advice/help, I'd be grateful.

    Ugh >.> So I asked a few generous people in need of a new home for their troublesome roosters if they could send them to me, and they said they could. So now I have three roosters(beautiful copper marans and a Silkie) headed my way. So far my fiance has had to pay NONE of the expenses coming...

    What breed are these hens?

    I know, everything appears orange, but this pretty accurately shows the color of the hen. The one we bought her from called the breed "Red Rockets" but of course, I've never heard of them. They have thick legs and slightly large feet. You can tell they will be heavy bodied birds. This female has...
