    Anyone know how to use this (Hova-bator incubator and egg turner) or where to find manual?

    My father in law let me borrow this but he doesn't know how to use it and doesn't have the instructions either. I'm new to owning chickens and have no clue how to do this.

    I've only had chickens a few months and one has been limping for two days so I just caught her and checked out her foot, it's very dirty but I don't see anything weird except this long feather that's pink with no fluff at the end. Does it look like a blood feather? Can this be the cause of her...

    Hi I'm new! Wondering if it's ok to clean up coops because I'm pregnant!

    I'm pretty new to owning chickens. We have 11 mixed breed chicken/roosters and 5 guinea fowl. I have two coops I cleaned one the other day and the smell was super strong and when I started removing layers of straw it had such a strong ammonia smell I felt like it might not be ok for me to be in...
