Hello,
I’m just putting this out there for you to watch to show how I tried to help my chicken.
I am trying to upload video but it will only allow me to upload a photo, am I missing something?
Initially, I was with the guinea pigs watching them forage for the first time and that’s why I was...
Hello! Thank you at the outset for reading this.
We have a 40x20 pole barn we have enclosed and in one of the bays we have a chicken coop, we have sheep in another two bays.
Outside the barn we have a lean-to that covers the chicken run with an automatic door that allows the chickens to exit...
Hello :)
I have a 9 month old hen, a Blue Wyandotte or Orphington named Karen. She grew up with a lavender Orphington, her bff, Lovey.
Lovey got sick back in March but Karen did not. I isolated Lovey and after Lovey got better and she was well enough to go back with our flock, that’s when...
Hello, I have been nursing a 18-20 week old pullet the past week and a half.
I found her lying down and barely moving one morning, I also noticed she had lime green poop. Wasn’t sure what the issue was.
At the same time, I had broken my toe so I was trying to nurse us both.
When I picked her...
Hello all,
last month we expanded our flock and brought home five chickens who we were told were egg layers.
When we pulled up to the woman’s home/business, we should have turned right around. Her coops were dirty and flocks seemed traumatized. I just thought it was our presence, but when we...
I know everyone thinks the crows are great, and I’ve never had a problem with them. I love the cute stories! But for some reason the crows in this area harass us instead of helping.
I’ve heard a lot of caw caw cawing but ignored it until last week when I went outside and saw two crows in the...
Hello,
I keep finding what look like vessels and flesh in chicken poop.
I clean the coop and run twice a day. I find it about once a day.
I can’t figure out who is the pooper.
We got 7 new chickens who aren’t laying yet about a month ago. I have not seen this before they came so I’m guessing...
Hello, a local person was giving away his flock so we jumped on it, don’t know her age and unsure what breed she is.
I appreciate your help, thank you!
Hello again :)
I saw this precious one stuck in a tiny cage with five other juveniles at a farm selling chicks/chickens. They plucked all his tail feathers out and part of his wings. We’ve had him for about two weeks.
Woman didn’t know how old ‘he’ is, she is convinced it is a Rooster.
What do...
Hello,
We bought a bunch of new friends and took them into our coop. We’ve had our original gang, and now we have new ones.
The pic is of the ladies we purchased from an ad on Craigs List in central Florida. The woman didn’t have any idea what breed they were, but they’re all the same breed...
Hello :)
I have 10 hens and one went broody so a friend gave me some of her fertilized eggs to place under her and 2 hatched successfully, they’ll be a week old tomorrow (9/16/24).
I placed the nesting box into a large dog crate and placed it on the floor of the coop. So far, so good… There...
Hello,
I was treating one of my ladies, Miss Green (1 year old and leader of the pack) for bumble-foot. I noticed it on Saturday, looked up how-to videos on YT and went to work on treating it.
It’s coming along well, but the second day I treated her (Sunday) while I was treating it, I noticed...
