    Will a broody hen kill a flock mate??

    I've had chickens for a while but after losing a few I added some I got as chicks from cal ranch last December. I have felt from the beginning that these chickens are a little off, they don't seem as healthy and I've had a few behavior problems. One I'm dealing with is them eating their eggs...

    Hello

    Hello! I'm new to chickens but so far i love them! I have 1 silkie hen I've had almost a year, she's a good little girl named Ethel. I also have 2 others that hatched Dec. 25, 2017, not sure what breed. They are a barnyard mix! This site is great! I'm excited to learn more here!
