    Bad Turkey

    My turkey and chickens have resided together inside and outside of the chicken coop, but all of a sudden the turkey is picking them up by their combs and freaking them out. WTH? Has anyone else experienced mean turkeys? Will this behavior continue?

    Sleepy Rooster?

    My little banty rooster has been pretty beat up by an up and coming young rooster. I brought him in the house yesterday and have been treating his wounds with Neosporin and a lot of love and holding him. He is the only bird I have that will let me hold him, so of course I love him. OK...

    Do Roosters Fight For Dominance?

    I'm trying to figure out what happened to my roo's comb. At first I thought frostbite, but none of the other chickens have any. So, I'm thinking it's the other rooster who is just barely an adult. Do they try to rule the coop and the girls?

    What eats geese?

    I had several healthy, large geese, but several have gone missing. What on earth has the muscle power to fight and eat a goose? Coyotes? Heck, they scare ME when they do the wing spreading/hissing thing! Seriously, this is upsetting. Now I have only 2 young male geese left, and I'm worried...

    my birds are disappearing

    I'm pretty freaked out because something is very wrong with my flock(s). I had 2 male geese and 1 female, 1 male turkey and 1 female, and one rooster (banty, little guy) and maybe 15 hens. The female goose disappeared, the female turkey disappeared, and several chickens are gone as well...

    Sick goose

    I'm looking for any advice or help with a sick Canadian goose. He/she (not sure yet) is about 1.5 months old and suddenly is unable to walk. He's eating and drinking, but cannot get up. The other 6 geese are fine. He acts sick as well, meaning he tucks his head back into his feathers. The...
