    Broody Hen Hatching a Pile of Dirt (help)

    Okay I know there are a ton of boody hen posts out there. Penguin, my 7 month old Wyandotte hen who has been laying eggs just fine up until last week, decided to go broody in a hole she dug under the cactus plants. Mind you there is no rooster in our yard and there are no eggs under her back...

    Best Options for Roosting Bar (Idiot Chicken Alert)

    I've never had a roosting area for my chickens. They always preferred to sleep in a pile and were never very interesting in roosting. Now that my rooster is gone the 4 idiots left are completely clueless about how, where, or when to sleep. I'm going to put a perch in their sleeping area then...

    Black Wyandotte Laying Dinky Eggs

    So my newest chicken, Penguin O'Tool, just started laying two weeks ago. She lays about 6 dark brown eggs a week and they are tiny. Tinier than her friend Pidgy McNugget, who is a bantam sized chicken. Penguin is as large as my easter egger. I read that Wyandottes lay smaller than average...

    Egg Lump Question

    This is a really noob question. I have two new pullets that are old enough to lay. One is a bantam and just last week just started laying dinky little brown eggs. The other is a huge black mother of all chickens who I'm fairly certain should start laying soon. When I pick her up I can feel...

    Look who took over the rooster spot!

    Thank you to all who assisted with Over Easy the Satan rooster. Rotisserie, the mixed breed "hood" chicken has taken over as queen of the flock. Look at that glorious comb.

    Hen or Roo? I think Over Easy got revenge

    Thinking our rescue Australop pullet Pidgy McNugget is a cockeral. The face is a little redder. Born around May 15th and is a bantam size chicken. So about 3 months old. Hasn't crowed yet.

    Need HELP! Over Easy the Rooster...To be or not to be.

    Over Easy my Buff Orpington rooster I have had since he was 3 days old. In the last three years he has become more and more aggressive. He has put his spurs through my calves three times. Chases the dogs around. He terrorizes my children in the back yard. No one can go outside without a...

    My Chickens want to come in the house

    I'm new to backyard chickens. I have one buff rooster and two Easter eggers. They have the entire back at their disposal and their coop and run are at the far end of the yard under the pecan tree. They insist on sleeping next to the back door on the patio on top of each other every night...
