    Phantom

    We need to re home this little guy. He is a bantam rooster. We intended on having only hens and he ended up being a rooster. I didn't want to sell him back to the store because I want to make sure he ends up somewhere loving. He's a goofy boy, we're just not supposed to have roosters here. I...

    How to keep chickens cool

    In Phoenix, we're approaching 100 degrees weather at night. Any suggestions on keeping them cool outside in their coop? It's open wired, so plenty of ventilation. I think it'll only get warmer from here.

    Soil/dirt

    Would anyone have reccomendations for safe soil to grow some grass for my hens to eat? I plan on putting a raised box with chicken wire on top so they can get to it all. I would also like to know if there are safe soils or dirt I can buy that wouldn't harm them. I heard I'm not supposed to get...

    Missing fathers

    My black sexlink is missing feathers down the middle and is pretty pink. I thought it was molt, but the other girls didn't get this bad. In terms of behavior, she acts the same, but I know chickens will hide illnesses.

    My chicken layed three eggs in a day

    So my chicken was in quarantine for three weeks with an impacted crop. She was scheduled for surgery, during that time we had her indoors so she wouldn't make it worse. She was on antibiotics and had a diet of citrus, mostly tomatoes and lemon juice in her pallets. This legit seemed to help...

    Reintroducing my chicken

    I have a chicken I've been isolating now for a week. She went to the vet for a blockage and now I've been watching her as she mends.

    Spider eggs

    My chicken ate spider eggs and now looks like her stomach droops a little and is behaving very clingy. She's normally my fiery spirited one. Is there a chance this caused harm? I know it's probably silly, but did the eggs hatch on her? She's going to the vet in two days.
