    Looking for hens

    I just moved to Greene County, NY, south of Albany. Does anyone have any hens or pullets for sale? I like to get them acclimated before laying starts. No preference as to breed. Thanks.

    Hen falls forward and to one side

    My little Serama hen was fine until yesterday, when she was sitting on the ground by herself while the others were eating and walking around. When I put her on the grass, she tries to walk and she falls forward and then onto her left side. I brought her in the house last night, in a box, and...

    3 meat bird pullets in New York State.

    I have 3 pullets that I bought in July as day old chicks from Tractor Supply that were supposed to be buff Brahmas. They just kept growing and growing and they’re bigger than the rest of the flock. It’s obvious they are meat chickens. .Anybody want them?

    Serama cockerels need new home

    My Serama pair raised 4 chicks - all male. They’re nice guys and don‘t fight but I can’t keep them.

    Serama cockerels need home - central NY state

    I let my Serama pair raise a brood last fall and they had 4 males and 1 female. The young pullet disappeared about a month ago. I'm hoping to find a good home for the 4 boys, who are starting to bother their mother now. There is one more, light brown one, who was hiding when I tried to take...

    Peeping young pullet

    Hi, hope someone can advise. I am so worried about this little chicken. In August, I bought 10 day-old cuckoo maran pullets and put them under a broody hen. She accepted them and has been a great mom - in fact, another hen has joined her and they take care of the babies together. One of...

    Is this nest safe for the chicks?

    My Serama hen hatched out 5 chicks yesterday. She is a bit more clever than the others and a greater hider of nests. This time, she built it in some cardboard boxes that were piled up - she has about a 6" square nest in a space inside 1 box with another box in there, too. She has been safe...

    Dog food for chickens.

    I was sent an extra bag of dog food from a mail order pet food service, and they don't want it back. Is it okay to give it to the chickens, mixed with their layer pellets and scratch food? Someone told me that it will make them aggressive and they might start eating their eggs, too. Does...

    Ia she sick? Pullet won't leave perch.

    One of my bantam cochin girls doesn't seem to want to get off of her night perch - she sits there day and night when the others are all walking around, eating, and sitting on eggs. If I lift her down, she will go straight over to the water and drink, and she eats too, but a few minutes later...

    Mr Mom Rooster?

    I have a very aggressive Mille Fleur Cochin bantam rooster (he killed his brother) who started picking on a Salmon Faverolle Bantam roo. The Fav is better at hiding so he is fine...then, one of my dogs caught the Mille fleur and pulled out all of his tail feathers. He looked so ashamed, he...
