First, it was just my adult boy bullying just my daughter. Now, it's my younger boy now biting us and being a bully to the other chickens. He's about six months. We hatched him.
Any ideas on what I should do to stop this naughtiness?
Two days ago, an opossum got into my coop. It killed two of my girls and severely wounded my two boys. While at the vet, one of my boys died. The other one, Wisteria, is now doing pretty well. He has puncture wounds on his head and neck and probable brain damage. BUT, he's doing a lot better...
One of my girls was being a butt-head, went over a fence, and got bit on her back by a small dog. I can't find any broken skin, but she's wheezing. Any ideas?
I have my seven hens in what used to be a covered carport. (Their outdoor run will be done this spring.) The problem is that it has a dirt floor. So, the walls, 'furniture', and their water are always COVERED in dirt! I mean, the light colored walls are brown! What would be the best way to have...
Hmm...Well, maybe that subject name is weird, but then, so is he! He's 5-6 months and learning to crow. This is not really good, because we're not in a house...yet. Anyhoo, he crows WHENEVER he feels like it, not in the early morning: late morning, afternoon, evening, 3am...He also doesn't crow...
