    What Happens If Chickens Don't Roost?

    I have three, two cochins and one silkie. The two cochins are at that age when they are about to lay. I put a roost in their coop and they refuse to use it. They prefer to sleep on the ground. I was wondering what would happen if they don't roost. Thank you.

    My Two Month Silkie Hates Being Touch?

    My silkie will stand by me, peck my fingers for treats, and comes up to me but when I touch him/her she/he does a panic chirp and runs away. Anyone know why? I had him/her since she/he was two weeks old.

    Are Silkie Roosters Meaner Then Other Breeds?

    I'm almost positive my one month Silkie is a cockerel by how he behaves. I heard somewhere that Silkie roosters are really aggressive, I was wondering if that's true. I know it's way to early to tell but I wanted you to see him.

    Anyone Else Have That One Picky Pullet?

    My giant and Silkie would eat about anything but my regular Cochin only eats crickets, German cockroaches, her feed, and rarely mealworms. I was wondering if anyone else has a picky eater on their hands?

    Begging For Treats By Pulling and Pecking My Clothes.

    This little girl pecks and pulls my shirt, pants, and sometimes my skin for treats. Is there anyway I can stop this behavior? It doesn't hurt (unless she hits my skin) but I'm worried when she gets older it will hurt. It's cute now but not when she gets older and can do some serious pain.
