    Giant Flemish Bit Me

    Hello, we recently inherited a year old giant Flemish rabbit. He came to us potty trained and very sweet yet shy. I expected that with this change of home and family there would be an adjustment period so I have not worried about his shyness and his regression in potty training, but today as I...

    What Kind of Chick is This?

    It may be too early to tell, not sure. I am assuming she is an EE, but in looking at EE chicks online I cannot find one that matches her coloring. She is pure, light yellow with bright white wings and grey legs. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hen Alerts Us When She Lays

    I am wondering if this is normal behavior or if I just have the best hen ever (just kidding). Every morning we let her out of the coop around 6 am, she stays out until about 7:30, then lays her egg, comes to our sliding door pecks the glass and squawks until we get the egg. Then we thank her...

    Egg Sizes

    Hello, our slightly older hen just started laying (about 7 months old) and her egg sizes vary so much! I have kept her last 6 eggs for comparison. Is this something that will eventually even out or is that just what chickens do? Just curious. :P

    I think we have a rooster

    Hello, we inherited two "hens" a few months back and fell in love, but now are thinking one is a rooster. Roosters are illegal in our city so we would have to re-home him, which is so sad because my children are so attached. Not to mention the two chickens are inseparable. :( Thanks for your...
