so last night, my hens got attacked by a raccoon that just the other day picked a fight with my dog. He found out how to unhitch the nesting box and went after my smallest hen. Thankfully we heard the screaming and were able to fight of the raccoon, but he put up a real fight. The only injuries...

I found one of my hens in the nesting box which isn’t strong of her since she likes sitting on the eggs but this morning I couldn’t get her to stand up and when I picked her up all of the feathers on her chest where gone! I mean the DISAPPEARED! I’m very worried... I got her to drink water but...

I’m planing on getting 2 chicks this week to join my silkie cross. I’ve been looking at different breeds and the brown novogen was looking like my best option considering my other hen was fairly small and I didn’t want there to be an issue with the size difference. I just thought I’d ask y’all...

hi, my name is Angie and I have stepped into life as a chicken mom only about 2 weeks ago, when my friend found a chicken roaming her yard that needed a home. I took her in about a week ago. I have no idea what breed she is but she is the sweetest, smallest chicken I’ve ever met. (We named her...

So I recently got a chicken from a friend who found this girl roaming in her yard and since she couldn’t keep her I took her in. She’s a very small hen, probably under 5 pounds and she has feathered feet. I’ve looked everywhere and I can’t find out what breed she is? Can anyone help me out?
