    Help me identify this plant please!

    I found this plant behind my house and am not sure what kind it is, if it is edible, or practically anything about it. Can someone give me some information? I thought it was a green zebra tomato at first but it has a lot of seeds inside like a pepper plant. When I took one off and brought it...

    Chick with Broken Toe? Deformity? Non-urgent.

    We recently got 8 new chicks for raising then selling. We purchased 6 sapphire gems, 1 americauna, and 1 little barred rock. The barred rock seems to have a crooked toe. 2 days ago when we got them was when we noticed it. It looked like she got her middle toe broken when she was in the brooder...

    New Coop, Egg eater, and other behavioral questions

    Hello BYC! It's been a while! A lot has been going on since the start of the summer and obviously, I haven't been able to post(not that anyone would be particularly interested in that fact :confused:).

    Mites/Lice/bugs?

    So a few days ago I saw a bug climbing on one of the younger chickens. From what I could tell the other girls had them as well. It wasn't small like an ant or bigger like a small beetle, but more like a type of lice. I didn't get a good look at it but my parents had me put diatomaceous earth...

    Coop for 9 Chickens with room to expand

    So, we currently have 9 chickens, 2 large ones and 7 younger ones(including 1 suspected roo). My family wants to have a permanent dwelling for the chickens with a rotatable dog run. We already have a plan for the coop, most of the materials, the money to build it, and the incentive. The only...

    Chicken Gardens?

    Hello everyone(who views this post)! I've been looking into gardening and farming articles - quite extensively I may add - that have awakened my country/southern origins!

    Chicks territorial or just crowded?

    The 4 chicks that my family owns include 2 very young (1-1.5 weeks) and 2 older chicks(2-4?). The older chicks have almost all of their feathers but are still very small. I have been noticing the two 'fighting' with each other on occasions. This would include running up to the other bird with...

    Hi! I'm new here.

    Hello! My name is Cordelia - though Splashy is my online name(SplashyDashyBomBashi). I would have to say that I've had chickens for quite a while. Back when my family lived on a farm, we had several hens and about 3 roosters. However, we had to sell them when we moved, and I've missed having...
