    Am I at risk of getting sick?

    Okay this is so bizarre, but my pullet decided to peck my teeth and I immediately rinsed my mouth with mouthwash. Am I good? I’m going to be rinsing again with some hydrogen peroxide and water before I eat dinner as well.

    Anyone else get tired of people joking about eating your chickens?

    It’s been happening to me a lot lately. I just want to post one chicken pic without someone making a chicken nugget remark. 😪 it’s like asking someone if they will eat their dog, of course not!

    Are Opossums Misunderstood?

    I’ve been feeding this particular opossum and her friends for over a year now and not once have any of them tried to go after my chickens or any other animal hanging around. Obviously I would never leave any of my birds alone with one, but I have come to the conclusion they aren’t a threat, at...

    Am I good?

    Okay I’m pretty sure I have a roo here, but the others should be good right? These are all a month old now. Allegedly Easter Egger mixes but it doesn’t matter, they all have a sweet personality and are so smart! Training them has been a breeze. A friend said my suspected roo might just be a hen...

    Spoiled Chicks

    Last night the girls were ready to sleep in their coop for the first time so I’m feeling sentimental. Thought I’d post some fun pics from these last few weeks. 💓 Not posted in any particular order. The opossum I've been feeding for the past year was not happy with the chicks. 🤣 they have...

    Oh Dear

    My chicken babies are 3 weeks and this one’s comb is a little on the big side. Should I be worried? I’m trying not to jump to conclusions, because I have a female hen with a comb as big as a roosters lol! It’s just if this is a roo, I need to rehome him so he can live the life he’s meant to. 😢...

    Intestinal lining or a worm?

    Got some chicken babies and one had some orangish stringy poop. Is this normal or do I need to get some dewormer? They are a few days old.

    Is my duck trying to mate?

    I noticed my rescue duck likes to tuck in his head and puff his chest out. I’m not sure if this is a mating call or just a duck thing. Sometimes he likes to nudge the chickens but he doesn’t do anything further than that, at least for now. I do keep them separated when I can’t watch them, but...

    Duckdate!

    Thank you so much everyone for all the advice you have given me when I took in an abandoned duck! He’s been doing very well! The chickens seems to have accepted him now, and he seems happy with their company! I only let them interact under supervision, but this duck has been doing so well here...

    Beginners tips for ducks?

    First off, duck tax! I have officially named my duck Uncle Waldo, if anyone gets the reference, you are awesome. So I researched the unpleasant truth about crested ducks… I read that vitamin B can help with some of the neurological problems? Can I literally give him a vitamin B supplement like...

    Who is she/he?

    Hello! So this is a first. Someone abandoned this poor duck and I took it in. Her/his wings are clipped, so I knew this wasn’t some wild duck. After asking around, some neighbors said they have been feeding it chicken feed for the past couple of days. I know it’s a better alternative than bread...

    Help a girl out!

    Hello! So I have a bit of a situation. My neighbors have once again got chicks, who will inevitably die of neglect. All of their past flocks have died either from starvation or predators, and I can’t sit back and watch this continue. I really want to turn them in for animal neglect, but my only...

    Cute or Weird?

    Since my girls are molting, I decided to save some of the prettiest feathers in an ornament! Has anyone done anything similar before? The process itself it’s pretty self explanatory-I just picked up some feathers on the ground, carefully put them in a glass ornament, disinfected the outside of...

    Deck Opinions?

    So my humble area got hit a bit hard by Hurricane Zeta, and well, we pretty much lost two coops. My dad is building two new above ground ones, and wants to line the bottom with chicken wire... But I’m worried that a raccoon could break in, even though it’s off the ground. Is there something...

    What Breed Is This?

    I took in this sweet girl a few days ago, and was just wondering what her breed is? Very friendly! I know I asked this before too, but are these Rhode Island Red’s? When I bought them, I was told they are Calico Princesses but... Tractor Supply was wrong about my “Golden Comets”😅

    Calico Princess?

    I am once again asking about a chicken breed. I was told by tractor supply that these are calico princesses (I have 4) but they arnt quite looking like the pictures I’ve seen. Don’t get me wrong, these girls have beautiful color, I’m just wondering what these are if they arnt Calico Princesses...

    Calico Princesses

    Man it has been forever since I posted here! With covid and all, the household agreed it might be a good idea to get some good laying hens in case we have meat shortages so we can get eggs as a protein source. Anyways, we got a new breed from Tractor Supply called the Calico Princess, and I was...
