We are in the Houston area so our three chickens have been thru a lot the last few days. They have been troopers and we have done everything possible to keep them safe. One of them keeps holding one eye close and didn't lay today. Her eye doesn't look red but it's been two days of her holding...
We have three Rhode Island reds, they are 18 weeks old. They are huge pets, my girls carry and hold them constantly. They come up to the door and peak for attention. They follow us in the yard and come running anytime we walk outside. The problem is one of them is getting aggressive with us...
This is kind of a long shot but was thinking I'd try it. Anyone have a goose near the Houston area they want to sell? I've tried everything local and can't find one. I really don't want to order babies, mine is 3-4 weeks old.
My girls are 9 weeks old, they are eating their starter food. They also get to free range some when we are out with them. We feed them lots of bread and veggies. What else should I be feeding them and when do I change them to adult food?

Our coop is a tractor coop and it's 8x4. The plan is to move it every other day. No free range unless we are outside with them and to be honset with all our activities that won't be often. So how many chickens can I have and them be happy/healthy.
My mother has a silkie that is very determined. My mom has been battling it out with her for a couple months now, nothing has worked for long. She is the lone silkie and lone survivor from last year chicks. She is super lonely and my mom wouldn't mind letting her sit if she had a rooster. So my...
We are going to try our hand at backyard chickens, we live in a neighborhood so limited to six. We have three Rhode Island Reds that are six weeks old, my husband built them a tractor coop. Everything seems to be going well except at bedtime.... it's to hot to have the heat lamp on in the...
